1917 Back Hospital Washington D C Psychiatric Hospital


EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "HOSPITAL, 1917" offers a glimpse into the early days of Saint Elizabeths Hospital in Washington D. C. The image showcases a seated woman, her back turned to the camera, within the confines of this historic psychiatric hospital. Taken in 1917 by Granger NYC / The Granger Collection, it captures both the somber atmosphere and architectural beauty of the institution. The woman's posture exudes a sense of introspection as she sits with her hands gently resting on her lap. Her hair is neatly styled in a bun, reflecting the fashion trends of that era. The starkness of her silhouette against the backdrop of an unknown interior creates an intriguing contrast. Saint Elizabeths Hospital was renowned for its innovative approach to mental health treatment during this time period. Established in 1855 as one of America's first federally operated psychiatric hospitals, it played a significant role in advancing understanding and care for individuals struggling with mental illness. As we contemplate this poignant image from over a century ago, we are reminded not only of how far we have come in terms of mental health care but also how important it is to continue striving for progress and compassion within our society today.
