EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Terror or Fright, 1815" by Henry Singleton depicts a woman consumed by overwhelming fear and anxiety. The artist skillfully captures the essence of terror in her expression, as her wide eyes and contorted features convey a sense of sheer horror. The image serves as a poignant representation of mental illness during the Regency era. In an age when understanding and compassion for such conditions were limited, this print offers a glimpse into the struggles faced by individuals afflicted with mental health issues. It sheds light on the societal attitudes towards madness at that time. The woman's disheveled appearance suggests her internal turmoil, while her petrified stance reveals how deeply she is affected by her fears. The artist's attention to detail further emphasizes the intensity of her emotions, making it impossible for viewers to look away. Singleton's engraving invites us to contemplate our own anxieties and fears, reminding us that mental health should be treated with empathy and understanding rather than judgment or dismissal. It serves as a powerful reminder that even in times past, people grappled with their inner demons. This thought-provoking artwork from Bridgeman Images not only showcases Singleton's artistic talent but also prompts us to reflect on our collective journey towards greater awareness and acceptance of mental well-being.
