I just gotta say, I've been following you since 2006/2007 and you really got me into photographing and learning about state hospitals and the like. I love looking at the architecture of buildings with age as well as the items you come across that can be as old as when the building closed, as you know. After looking at some of these galleries from other countries outside the US, you have definitely lived the life so far. Keep doing this as long as you can!

Not necessarily, it could have simply been a part of the resources were acquired or donated to the hospital. Some patients may also have had a mentality closer to that of a child rather than an adult, and so reading material like this might be appropriate to include on the ward.
A wonderfully long gallery, and I loved every minute of it, Motts! Thanks!

Hard to say really, other than a communal space; there wasn't much evidence left behind, and I really don't know how a typical Italian psychiatric hospital operated.
String Man seems to be à man of many creative artistic talents!
Motts, your photos actually are à commentary on this portion of String Man's life. We have been able to learn so much about him through the lenses of your cameras, even tho he may no longer be there at the hospital in person. Thanks for giving us so much insight into this unique person!

I believe most of it was addressed to one person, but I can't say for certain if that is the case or even if was his name.
Well, you people do know don't you that many people with mental illnesses do self-medicate? Especially if they're not on medication or medication is not available to them for whatever reason.
