Went to Archives in the morning.
We saw the only photograph of Baha'u'llah that exists. It's kept locked in a cabinet. And also a portrait of the Bab. Quite a moving experience. Baha'u'llah's picture was taken after He was poisoned. The doctor said the amount of and the type of poison would have killed anyone. He had also been tortured and imprisoned for over 4 months before being exiled out of Iran. Hence, His passport photo. One can see the determination in His eyes to live.
I once saw a photo on the Internet of Baha'u'llah and it didn't look like the real photo in the Archives. So if you see a photo on the Internet, don't believe it.
