Pinel freeing the insane from their chains, Salpêtrière hospital, Paris
A dim interior crowded with figures in ragged clothing and white bonnets, with a man in a dark frock coat and hat standing at the center. A half-dressed woman stands near a crouching man, and a reclining woman lies at the right, painted in loose, dark oil brushwork.
