EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of intense pain and danger as a subject suffering from epilepsy experiences a typical Grand Mal attack. With his eyes tightly closed and face grimacing, the man's brown hair falls disheveled around him as he lies shirtless on his back. The severity of the seizure is evident by the blood on his tongue, which he has bitten in the midst of this distressing episode. The historical significance of epilepsy is highlighted in this image, as it was once referred to as the Sacred Disease in ancient times. Even renowned figures like Julius Caesar were not exempt from experiencing epileptic seizures. This photograph comes from Jules Rengade's work "Les Grands Maux et les Grands Remedes" published in Paris around 1890. The image serves as a reminder of how far medical research has come since then, shedding light on an illness that was poorly understood at the time. It also emphasizes the risks and challenges faced by individuals living with epilepsy throughout history. Displayed vertically, this thought-provoking snapshot offers us a glimpse into French culture during that era while showcasing one man's struggle with this debilitating condition indoors in Paris. The focus on human teeth and tongue adds an element of raw vulnerability to the composition, evoking empathy for those who have endured similar episodes throughout history.
