EDITORS COMMENTS
"The Fascines of Charity (Doctor Luyss service). Scene at the Hôpital de la Charité in Paris: patients with hysteria and other mental illnesses are being watched by doctors at the back of the room. On the wall, a poster about hypnosis methods as a treatment for psychological diseases". This print captures a poignant scene from 19th-century Parisian healthcare. Painted by Georges Moreau De Tours in 1889, it depicts an intimate moment inside the Hôpital de la Charité, where patients afflicted with hysteria and various mental illnesses find solace. In this evocative image, we see doctors observing their patients from afar, silently studying their behaviors and expressions. The atmosphere is one of both curiosity and compassion as these medical professionals seek to understand and treat these complex conditions. A notable detail within the painting is a prominently displayed poster on the wall discussing hypnosis methods as a potential treatment for psychological diseases. This serves as a reminder of how medical practices were evolving during this period, exploring new avenues to alleviate suffering. Georges Moreau De Tours masterfully brings this historical moment to life through his skilled use of oil on canvas. His attention to detail allows us to glimpse into the world of mental health care in late 19th-century France. This thought-provoking artwork can be found at Musee Des Beaux-Arts in Reims, France – an institution dedicated to preserving and showcasing exceptional works that capture significant moments in history. It stands as a testament to our ongoing quest for understanding and empathy towards those struggling with mental health issues throughout time.
