EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures a pivotal moment in the medical establishment's reaction to mesmerism in 1780. Deslon, one of Mesmer's few supporters in Paris, is depicted being censured for his enthusiasm towards the Viennese charlatan. The scene portrays the stark contrast between those who believe in the altered states and paranormal abilities associated with mesmerism, and those who view it as nothing more than a hoax.
The tension between Deslon and the medical establishment is palpable in this image, as he stands defiantly against their disapproval. Despite facing criticism from his peers, Deslon remains steadfast in his support for Mesmer and his controversial practices.
This print serves as a reminder of the skepticism and resistance that often accompanies groundbreaking ideas in history. It highlights the clash between traditional beliefs and new discoveries, shedding light on how individuals like Deslon were willing to challenge established norms in pursuit of knowledge.
Through this image from Mary Evans Picture Library, viewers are transported back to a time when mesmerism was at the center of heated debates within the medical community. It offers a glimpse into a fascinating chapter of history where enthusiasm clashed with skepticism, leaving an indelible mark on our understanding of hypnosis and paranormal phenomena.
