EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting photograph captures the tragic lives of two cretins, a 27-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man, circa 1880. Cretinism, a condition caused by iodine deficiency during fetal development, was once incorrectly believed to be a form of insanity. The stigma surrounding cretinism led to the marginalization and institutionalization of those afflicted. The woman in the image is shown with a vacant expression, her body hunched and twisted, her hands clenched in front of her. Her clothing is simple and worn, indicating a life spent in poverty and neglect. The man, slightly younger, is seen with a similar posture and demeanor. His eyes are downcast, and his expression is one of sadness and resignation. Despite their young ages, both individuals appear to have lived lives marked by hardship and isolation. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the medical misunderstandings and societal prejudices of the past. It also highlights the importance of medical advancements and the need for compassionate care for those with developmental disabilities. This image, though difficult to view, offers a glimpse into a time when the lives of those with cretinism were often overlooked and misunderstood. It serves as a reminder of the progress that has been made in medical understanding and the importance of empathy and compassion in caring for those with developmental disabilities.
