EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful photograph captures the serene and tranquil Garden of the Middlesex Hospital, located on Mortimer Street in the heart of London's bustling Fitzrovia neighborhood, in the year 1909. The Garden, a hidden gem amidst the urban landscape, was an essential part of the hospital's commitment to the holistic care and wellbeing of its patients. The image reveals a lush, green oasis filled with an array of trees, including tall, leafy evergreens and blossoming deciduous varieties, providing ample shade and a soothing ambiance. Flower beds, brimming with vibrant blooms, add a splash of color and fragrance to the scene. Benches, strategically placed throughout the garden, invite patients to take a moment of respite, offering a peaceful retreat from the hospital wards. The Garden of the Middlesex Hospital was more than just a pretty space; it was an integral component of the institution's medical approach. The restorative power of nature was well-known during this era, and the garden served as a vital tool for patients' physical and mental recovery. The garden's calming atmosphere, combined with the fresh air and gentle sounds of nature, offered a welcome contrast to the clinical environment of the hospital. This photograph is a testament to the forward-thinking approach of the Middlesex Hospital, which recognized the importance of addressing the whole person – body, mind, and spirit – in the healing process. The Garden of the Middlesex Hospital stands as a symbol of the institution's dedication to providing comprehensive care and fostering an environment that supported the health and wellbeing of its patients over a century ago.
