The Holloway Sanatorium, Virginia Water - A Glimpse into Victorian Mental Healthcare
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving by Frank Watkins offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of The Holloway Sanatorium, located in Virginia Water, Surrey. Published in The Illustrated London News on 20 June 1885, this print showcases the grandeur and architectural beauty of this renowned institution. The image captures the imposing entrance to the sanatorium, with its stately facade and meticulously manicured grounds. Inside, we are transported to various spaces within the facility - from spacious recreation rooms where patients engage in leisurely activities to serene Turkish baths offering relaxation and rejuvenation. The engraving also provides insight into daily life at The Holloway Sanatorium. We see patients sitting together in communal areas, engaging in conversation or perhaps finding solace amidst their shared experiences. Additionally, glimpses of other essential facilities such as a chapel and a hall further emphasize that holistic care was provided within these walls. Dr. Phillips himself is depicted within this artwork – an esteemed figure responsible for overseeing patient well-being at this prestigious establishment. As we explore every intricate detail captured by Watkins' skilled hand, it becomes evident that The Holloway Sanatorium was not merely a place of treatment but also a sanctuary for those seeking respite from mental afflictions during Victorian times.
