EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1832, providing a glimpse into the past and shedding light on an important aspect of Victorian society. The image showcases a receipt of payment received by Sir Jonathan Miles asylum at Hoxton House, inked meticulously on printed paper. This document serves as evidence of the sum of fourteen pounds and three shillings donated by the overseers of St Clements on May 9th. The significance lies in understanding that Sir Jonathan Miles asylum was an institution dedicated to caring for individuals afflicted with mental derangement. In an era where mental health was often misunderstood or stigmatized, this establishment played a crucial role in offering support and treatment to those suffering from such conditions. The receipt itself is a tangible representation of compassion and societal progress during this time period. It symbolizes not only financial contributions but also empathy towards those experiencing mental health challenges. Through this simple piece of paper, we are reminded that even centuries ago, people recognized the importance of providing care and cure for individuals struggling with their mental well-being. As we observe this historical artifact, it prompts us to reflect upon how far we have come in terms of our understanding and approach towards mental health today. It reminds us that every small step taken towards destigmatization is significant in creating a more inclusive society for all.
