EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting Highlands of 1835. The image, created by Henry Alexander Ogg, showcases the magnificent Highlands private asylum at Ticehurst. Originally established in 1792 by Samuel Newington, this remarkable institution was later expanded and beautified by his son Charles Newington. The engraving, skillfully executed by Thomas Henwood and reproduced in "The History, Antiquities, and Topography of the County of Sussex" captures the grandeur of this historic building. Nestled amidst lush landscaped gardens meticulously crafted by veterans employed under Charles' guidance, it exudes an air of tranquility against a backdrop of rolling hills. As we gaze upon this scene frozen in time, we are reminded not only of its architectural splendor but also its significance as a place dedicated to healthcare during that era. The Highlands asylum served as a haven for those seeking solace from mental afflictions—a testament to society's evolving understanding and treatment of such conditions. Intriguingly framed within the image is a lone gentleman standing amidst the grounds—an enigmatic figure whose presence adds depth to our contemplation. His inclusion prompts us to ponder about his role within these walls—perhaps he was one among many who found respite within these hallowed halls. Henry Alexander Ogg's masterful work allows us to glimpse into both history and humanity—a visual narrative that speaks volumes about the intersection between architecture, healthcare, and compassion in 19th century England.
