The poor lady that was naked under the bench was the most disturbing.  |

Re: Vintage Photos of Women from Mental Asylums
Pretty powerful shit. From what I've heard, women in those days could be institutionalized for any number of reasons, and the conditions and treatment were dismal.

Re: Vintage Photos of Women from Mental Asylums
I don't know if this will interest anyone but the City Insane Asylum of New Orleans have an online space with details of patients that were admitted and what for. No pictures but really interesting read. All the records are from 1882 - 1884. There are some from 1888 as well. http://nutrias.org/inv/cityinsaneasylum1_50.htm |
