Captivating video, you are super talented 👏
Delighted you enjoyed it! Difficult topic to make entertaining and i wanted to do more than the usual exploring the grounds that everyone else has done on this location. Just hope it gets more than 100 views before it does into obscurity!
I watched this all the way through. It would have been a beautiful setting for the people to live in the surrounding. But must have been grim to be in there. A pauper grave was usually because no one came forward to pay for a funeral to give the people a grave stone. Unusual to have the list of names. I loved to see you painting the hospital so talented.
Thank you! I didn’t really know about the cemetery until one of the locals walking his dog told me about it, he said it was the only bit still worth seeing… perhaps he had family there, it’s certainly the one thing that makes you remember there were real people in there.
Great painting! I enjoy watching you paint, it's very relaxing and you always capture the scene. That's a sad old place. Lunatic asylums are always sad to me. This one didn't have the creepy vibes other places you've taken us to have had. Still, I bet if you were there in the middle of the night there would be a different vibe. I wish all these 'smart' governments could come up with a humane way to take care of people with mental health problems. Places like that always have horrible stories of mistreatment and corruption.... and so much suffering. It would be good if someone came in and restored it and turned it into a hotel or vacation resort. But I suspect it will be torn down to build something modern and ugly or worse, left to rot. The graveyard was taken care of, that gives me hope for humanity at least.
Thanks Sarah, I feel great relief to have picked up the brushes again. I thought I had abandoned that passion, I hate the word hobby.
I’ve thought about why it wasn’t creepy, and I think it’s because I never saw a room where patients would’ve stayed. It’s hard to find photos you can share with Creative Commons, but go back 10/15 years and you see some disturbing snaps of equipment, beds, crematoriums, wheelchairs and other stuff lying about that brings to life the tortured lives that went before. It’s just been heavily gutted that it’s hard to see its soul anymore.
I don’t think it’ll be torn down, but ironically strict preservation rules in Scotland will see it too expensive to renovate, it’s not in an affluent area so I suspect the cost of renovation and materials in present economy wouldn’t see sales recoup the expenditure. So it will continue to rot for now.
It’d make a great hotel/spa but not sure how relaxing you’d feel knowing it was a lunatic asylum, how would you know if you were there by choice or committed? Would you trust your reality? 🫤 it’s like the start of a horror movie.
It’s weird, but almost every asylum in Scotland (and England too) look very grand, many have the twin clocks or towers. What happened to architecture, cars, trains… the modern world, it’s so ugly.
Thanks again for watching and taking time to comment! ❤️
@@martinsodyssey Here in the US we have a lot of old asylums, reformatories and prisons that look like gothic castles. They were built in the same era (called the Gilded Age over here). I think the idea was to intimidate and impress, and well done to the architects because they are very imposing structures. Over here they often tear down the old beautiful buildings and build their angular monstrosities of glass and metal. I'm like you and wish for a return to the grand and ornate architecture of the past.
@@SarahGreen523 the US is so “young” you’d think preserving future history would be more important.
We do conservation v.well here but I guess there is only so much you can save, we’ve immaculate castles and palaces with perfectly preserved/replicated interiors to ruins with not much but foundations and everything inbetween. I’m definitely enjoying the journey of finding the lesser known stuff, even if it means they are just skin and bones now.
I do find it strangely ironic that mental asylums, places where people historically have been treated so badly were so beautifully and ornately decorated, albeit as you say, intimidating! Perhaps good intentions gone wrong.
Money talks, mass production sadly is theme of the future.
