EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of a proud dressmaker, as depicted in an unpublished treatise by Jean Etienne Dominique Esquirol. Created around 1818, this pencil illustration showcases the profile of a woman with a mental handicap, residing in the infamous Salpetriere asylum. The image provides us with a glimpse into the world of psychiatric disorders during that era. The French psychiatrist Esquirol, renowned for his work at La Salpetriere and Charenton Hospice, sheds light on the lives of these individuals through his treatise. This particular portrait emphasizes not only her mental illness but also her sense of pride. Despite her condition, this dressmaker exudes confidence and self-assurance. Her intricate hairstyle adds to her allure and serves as a testament to her creativity even within the confines of the asylum walls. It is both fascinating and heartbreaking to witness how she maintains dignity amidst adversity. This image prompts contemplation about mental health care throughout history and challenges our perceptions about those labeled as "lunatics". It reminds us that behind every diagnosis lies a complex individual deserving compassion and understanding. Preserved in France's Bibliotheque Nationale archives, this artwork continues to intrigue viewers today. Its historical significance combined with its artistic merit makes it an invaluable piece worth exploring further.
