EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving takes us back to the year 1710, offering a glimpse into the haunting world of The Bicetre Asylum in Paris. Created by an anonymous French artist from the 18th century, this print showcases the architectural grandeur and eerie atmosphere of one of France's most renowned mental hospitals. The image transports us to a time when mental health treatment was vastly different from our modern understanding. The imposing walls surrounding the asylum serve as a reminder of society's attempts to separate those deemed "lunatics" or "madmen" from mainstream society. It is within these walls that countless individuals sought solace and medical care for their troubled minds. The intricate details captured in this engraving allow us to appreciate both the beauty and melancholy associated with such institutions. We can almost imagine patients wandering through its corridors, seeking refuge amidst their inner turmoil. As we contemplate this historical artifact, it prompts reflection on how far we have come in terms of mental health awareness and treatment. Today, we strive for compassion and understanding rather than confinement and isolation. This print serves as a testament to our evolving understanding of mental health throughout history while also reminding us of the importance of empathy towards those who suffer silently within our communities.
