Joel-Peter Whitkin, "The Kiss," 1982
The photo does not show two different heads at all, as it might seem at first glance. To create the photo, the author split one human head in half and placed the parts in a "kissing" pose. The University of New Mexico executives, who wrote the photographer the samples, were furious when they saw the results of Whitkin's work.

Edward Munch "Self-Portrait in Hell"
"Since birth - angels of fear, sorrow, death have stood beside me, followed me outside when I played, followed me in sunny spring, in lush summer. They stood beside me in the evenings when I closed my eyes - and threatened me with death, hell, and eternal punishment. And then it often happened, I would wake up at night, and gaze in wild fear into the darkness of the room: Am I in hell?"
1903
