EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Hysterical epilepsy, delirium, lust" is a powerful portrayal of the complexities of mental illness in the late 19th century. Taken by Paul Regnard as part of the Iconographie Photographique de La Salpetriere project in Paris, 1876, this albumen print measures 9.5x6 cm and now resides in a private collection. Regnard's collaboration with Desire Magloire Bourneville sheds light on their groundbreaking work documenting cases of hysteria and epilepsy at Salpetriere Hospital. In this particular image, we witness a female patient lying on a bed within the confines of an asylum. Her expression reflects both madness and vulnerability as she grapples with her condition. The composition invites contemplation about society's understanding and treatment of mental illness during that era. The starkness of photography adds to its haunting quality while emphasizing the contrast between light and shadow. Through this photograph, Regnard captures not only the physical manifestations but also the emotional turmoil experienced by those afflicted with hystero-epilepsy. It serves as a testament to his dedication to neurology and psychiatry, shedding light on these often misunderstood conditions. As we gaze upon this remarkable portrait from history, we are reminded of how far our knowledge has progressed since then while acknowledging that there is still much more to learn about mental health today.
