liza I thought they were bed mattresses until I saw the pictures of the porch furniture. I agree with all infestation remarks. Don't forget the mice.

	liza I could imagine being locked in the rooms with the little window and standing on my bed trying to see the outside world.

	liza Upon closer inspection I see what might be a bath tub in the next room. Perhaps this device was used to warm blankets or towels?

	liza Thanks shortarseJo. Good idea. I was pretty close on my uneducated guess.

	liza I am not sure what happened to all of the people that had to leave, but I do know that much of the overcrowding was due to people dumping individuals that did not really belong in an institution.

	liza Very nice Motts. Thank you.

	liza They put so much work into these places and then just leave them. Do you know how much those gates would cost today????

	liza Beautiful soothing greenery and fresh smells. Crunch leaves underfoot. Nice.

	liza It looks like some of these smaller buldings would make nice homes.

	liza Only the penthouse would have a groovy chair like that. Check out that mod grate work. I wonder what was under the windows that they just painted around? More little cabinets?

Location: Manicomio Frigerio  Gallery: Il Grande Manicomio

	liza Yes, very earthy. Nice lighting, no exit.

	liza I am worried about Motts and the mold too. But first , watch out for that little hole in the floor. What the hell? Is it a board over something or something?

	liza Check out the way that window joins with the ceiling. Very interesting. What created the splotches of light further down the tunnel?

	liza Very clean and white. Just a little ivy peeking in. Pretty colored glass replaced by ugly frosty glass.

	liza Oh, Motts. The ivy and the hose, plus monster cobwebs. Divine.

	liza Yes, Binky. The elite Italian zombie.

	liza They bricked up the bodies and thought nobody would notice? But first they stripped the nice tile.

	liza What did that debris consist of? It looks like rotten cotton stuffing.

	liza That black mold caught my eye too. Then I saw what Motts saw. The creeping stain. creepy creeping stain.

	liza You can't go, Binky, the door is barred.

	liza The walls and the ceilings just blend together. Kind of freaks out my eyes.

	liza It's time for your treatment Mr. Motts.

	liza "There's still time to change the road you're on . . ." This way lies bedlam, the other freedom.

	liza Poor little cabinets. Is it just the angle, or is that door sort of suspended in space. Was there a step down into the room? Or is that even a door?

Location: Manicomio Frigerio  Gallery: Il Grande Manicomio

	liza It almost looks like the little cushion vomited or something. Do you think they put beds between each cabinet?
