A Frightful Accident in a Hospice - Tragedy Strikes the Elderly
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a chilling moment frozen in time, depicting the aftermath of a frightful accident that unfolded within the walls of a hospice. Painted by an anonymous French artist from the 20th century, this colour lithograph serves as a haunting reminder of human vulnerability. The scene reveals an eerie dormitory where eight elderly patients met their untimely demise due to carbon monoxide poisoning. It was discovered that they had left the stove lit overnight without properly closing its cover, resulting in this devastating tragedy. The image portrays beds occupied by lifeless bodies, highlighting the fragility and transience of existence. As we gaze upon this heart-wrenching tableau, we are reminded of our own mortality and the importance of vigilance in safeguarding against unforeseen dangers. The presence of a nun amidst this somber setting adds another layer to the narrative – her sorrowful expression reflecting both grief for those lost and perhaps guilt for not preventing such a calamity. This artwork originally served as an illustration for Le Petit Journal on March 17th, 1901 – forever preserving this harrowing event within historical records. Its inclusion in private collections ensures that future generations will bear witness to this cautionary tale about neglect and its dire consequences. Let us remember these unfortunate souls who perished too soon and learn from their tragic fate; may their memory serve as a constant reminder to prioritize safety and protect those entrusted
