EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting photograph, titled "Hysterical epilepsy, attack, crucifixion" captures the raw intensity of a moment frozen in time. Taken from the Iconographie Photographique de La Salpetriere by Bourneville et P. Regnard in 1876, this albumen print showcases the work of French physician and psychiatrist Desire Magloire Bourneville. In this image, we see a woman lying on a bed with her body contorted in an agonizing pose. The sheet beneath her is crumpled as she writhes in the grip of an epileptic seizure. Her face reveals both pain and vulnerability, while her outstretched arms evoke images of crucifixion. Regnard's photography aimed to document cases of hysteria and epilepsy at the Salpetriere asylum. Through these visual case histories, he sought to shed light on mental illness and its impact on individuals' lives. The sepia tones add depth to this already powerful composition, emphasizing the gravity of the subject matter. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are reminded of society's complex relationship with madness and how it has been treated throughout history. This small-scale print offers us a glimpse into a world that was often hidden away within asylums like Salpetriere. It serves as a testament to both human suffering and our ongoing quest for understanding mental health conditions. As we contemplate this image from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, may it inspire empathy towards those who have grappled with mental illness throughout time - reminding us that compassion remains crucial in our collective journey towards healing.
