This photograph transports us back in time to the 19th century, capturing the essence of Bethlehem Hospital in London. The image, taken by an English photographer whose name remains unknown, is a rare gem from a private collection. It showcases the historical significance of this renowned institution. Bethlehem Hospital, also known as Bedlam, holds a significant place in London's history as one of the oldest mental health institutions in Europe. This hauntingly beautiful print provides a glimpse into its grandeur and architectural splendor during its heyday. The composition exudes an air of mystery and intrigue with its monochromatic tones that add depth and character to every detail captured. The photographer's skillful eye allows us to appreciate both the intricate design elements and the sheer scale of this remarkable building. Originally featured as an illustration for "The Queens London" publication by Cassell in 1896, this print serves as a testament to how photography was used to document important landmarks at that time. Preserved through generations, it now finds itself under the care of Look and Learn - an organization dedicated to preserving art for educational purposes. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing image, we are transported back in time; our imagination running wild with stories untold within these walls.
