EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Source Size = 2593 x 2521 (Middlesex County Lunatic Asylum, Colney Hatch, Consecration of the Cemetery)" takes us back in time to the Victorian era. The image showcases an engraving from 1851, depicting a significant event at the Middlesex County Lunatic Asylum in Colney Hatch - the consecration of its cemetery. The black and white engraved image exudes a sense of history and illustrative technique, transporting us to a bygone era. The retro-styled vintage aesthetic adds to its allure, making it a fascinating piece for art enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The composition captures the solemnity of this momentous occasion with great attention to detail. It allows us to glimpse into the cultural practices surrounding mental health during that period while shedding light on how society dealt with those deemed "lunatics". As we explore this artwork from Liszt Collection's archives, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our past and understanding how far we have come in terms of mental health care. This engraving serves as both a visual representation and historical artifact that invites contemplation on societal attitudes towards mental illness throughout different periods.
