EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of The Hanwell Asylum, located in north-west London. This historical asylum opened its doors in 1831 on the outskirts of the bustling city. Patients at Hanwell were encouraged to become self-sufficient, working within the prison walls and supplying local industries with their produce.
The sketch captured in this image was taken during a bazaar organized by the asylum, showcasing the incredible work made by the patients themselves. From intricate crafts to handmade goods, these items were up for sale to support both the asylum and its residents.
As you gaze upon this snapshot from 1800s London, you can almost feel the sense of community and purpose that thrived within these walls. The patients at Hanwell were not just individuals seeking treatment - they were artisans, contributing members of society despite their circumstances.
This print is more than just a glimpse into history; it's a reminder of resilience and creativity in unexpected places. Let yourself be transported to a time when mental health care looked very different but still held moments of beauty and connection.
