EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Hysterical epilepsy, attack, crucifixion" is a powerful depiction of the complexities surrounding mental illness in the late 19th century. Taken by Paul Regnard as part of the iconic "Iconographie Photographique de La Salpetriere" series, this albumen print measures 9.4x6 cm and belongs to a private collection. The image portrays a female patient suffering from hystero-epilepsy, lying on a bed with a sheet and pillow. The woman's contorted body suggests an intense seizure or convulsion associated with her condition. The title itself alludes to the crucifixion-like posture she assumes during the episode. Regnard was known for his collaboration with renowned French physician and psychiatrist Desire Magloire Bourneville at La Salpetriere hospital in Paris. Together, they documented various cases of hysteria and epilepsy through photography, providing valuable insights into these complex neurological disorders. This photograph serves as both an artistic piece and historical documentation of mental illness treatment during that era. It sheds light on the challenges faced by patients within psychiatric institutions like asylums while also highlighting advancements made in neurology and psychiatry. As we gaze upon this haunting image captured over a century ago, it reminds us of how far we have come in understanding and treating mental illnesses today.
