The Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital was originally a gunpowder factory in the 17th century but then morphed into this beast of a hospital. It became the world’s largest on the eve of the French Revolution. The painting on the final image (“A Clinical lesson at the Salpetriere”) shows the time when the clinical lead Jean-Martin Charcot made the hospital renowned for neuropsychiatry. Here he is showing a young lady with “hysteria” to his students which included names like Sigmund Freud, Babinski, Janet, Tourette and many others. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #paris #hysteria #architecture #theparisguru #paris_focus_on #parisphotography #parisestmagique #hysterical #parisgram #parismaville #parislifestyle #pariscartepostale #architectureporn #parisianlife #neuropsychology #historyofmedicine #travelawesome #wanderlust #instatravel #francephoto #igersfrance #parisgram #archaddicts #psychiatry #neurology #parisjetaime #igersparis #parisienne #parisian #medicine #hospital (at 13eme arrondissement, Paris) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7S0CQ1FmhB/?igshid=drr9fkrrpjsw
This is the giant Tsuzumi-mon (“Sacred Gate”) wooden gate which is the entrance to Kanazawa Station and is shaped as a traditional Torii gate. It has huge drum-like legs, and had become a symbol of this Temple city which has the equivalent national population ranking of the UK’s Swindon or the US’s Tucson. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #kanazawa #architecture #architectureporn #wanderlust #travelgram #instatravel #japan #instagood #travel #photography #ファッション #ファインダー越しの私の世界 #写真好きな人と繋がりたい #インスタ映え #いいね返し #かわいい #可愛い #大阪 #大阪カフェ #大阪グルメ #大阪市 #大阪美容室 #大阪ネイルサロン #カフェ #東京 #日本 #photooftheday #京都 #コーヒー #カフェ巡り (at Kanazawa, Ishikawa) https://www.instagram.com/p/B32DPesF2f3/?igshid=qsvobqqqey69
