EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the year 1860 with this print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The scene captures the workroom of Bethlehem Hospital, where women are gathered around a large table engrossed in their embroidery work. As some delicately stitch intricate designs, others provide a musical backdrop by playing the piano.
This historical snapshot offers a glimpse into daily life at an asylum during the Victorian era. The women's focused expressions and meticulous handiwork speak volumes about the dedication and skill required for such tasks. Meanwhile, the soothing melodies of the piano create a serene atmosphere amidst what was likely a challenging environment.
The presence of a dog adds an element of warmth and companionship to this otherwise clinical setting. It serves as a reminder that even in institutions dedicated to treating insanity, there is still room for humanity and connection.
Overall, this image is not just a visual representation of 1860s medical history but also a testament to resilience and creativity in the face of adversity. It invites viewers to contemplate the lives of these women who found solace and purpose through their craft within the confines of Bethlehem Hospital's workroom.
