EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures a rare glimpse into the lives of patients at the Middlesex Lunatic Asylum in Colney Hatch, circa 1853. Despite their struggles with insanity, these individuals found solace and joy through entertainment such as dancing reels. The image depicts a group of patients engaged in lively dance, showcasing moments of respite from their daily challenges within the asylum walls.
The setting of the asylum may evoke feelings of sadness or discomfort for some viewers, but it is important to remember that mental health treatment has evolved significantly since this time period. The history captured in this photograph serves as a reminder of how far we have come in understanding and caring for those with mental illness.
Through the lens of Mary Evans Picture Library, we are granted access to a piece of forgotten history - one that sheds light on both the hardships and small moments of happiness experienced by individuals living with insanity during the 19th century. This print stands as a testament to resilience and humanity, offering us a window into a world that is often overlooked or misunderstood.
