EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled ""Not every fool is in the hospital. " takes us back to the 18th century, where proverbs were a common way of imparting wisdom. This intriguing illustration, created by an unknown artist, showcases a thought-provoking maxim that challenges our perception of madness and mental health. In this engraving, we see a young woman standing within the confines of what appears to be an asylum. Her expression is contemplative yet serene, suggesting a deeper understanding beyond her surroundings. The delicate lines and intricate details bring forth the complexity of her thoughts. The artwork invites us to question societal norms surrounding mental health during that era. It reminds us that not all fools are confined within psychiatric hospitals - there is more than meets the eye when it comes to understanding human behavior. Giancarlo Costa's masterful reproduction allows this centuries-old piece to transcend time and resonate with contemporary audiences. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the importance of empathy and compassion towards those struggling with their mental well-being. This image serves as a reminder that even in times long past, people recognized the significance of psychological care and sought ways to express it through art. It stands as both an artistic marvel from history and a testament to our ongoing journey towards better understanding mental health today.
