EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Hysterical epilepsy, attack, third period" is a powerful representation of the complexities surrounding mental illness in the late 19th century. Taken by Paul Regnard as part of the Iconographie Photographique de La Salpetriere series in Paris, 1876, this albumen print offers a glimpse into the world of hysteria and epilepsy. The image portrays a female patient lying on a bed in an asylum. Her face contorted with anguish and her body tense with convulsions, she embodies the physical manifestation of her condition. The photographer's intention was to document cases of hysteria and epilepsy for medical purposes under Bourneville's guidance. Regnard's meticulous attention to detail captures not only the woman's suffering but also highlights society's limited understanding at that time. This photograph serves as both historical evidence and an artistic exploration into mental health during this era. As we gaze upon this haunting portrait today, it reminds us how far we have come in our understanding and treatment of mental illnesses. It prompts reflection on how these conditions were once misunderstood or even stigmatized. This rare piece from a private collection allows us to delve deeper into the history of neurology, psychiatry, and patient care while acknowledging the resilience shown by those who lived through such challenging circumstances.
