By comparing their observations with my own, I find a total of 108 mental patients with artistic tendencies, of which: --46 were towards painting, 10 sculpture, 11 engraving, 8 music, 5 architecture, 28 poetry.

It is evident that those which predominate are the congenital and least readily curable forms (monomania and moral insanity), together with dementia, and those forms which it accompanies, or in which it is latent (megalomania and paralysis). Let us now consider the special characteristics of these insane artists. Geographical distribution.--In the districts where the artistic tendency is more marked among the sane, the number of insane artists is also higher. In fact, I have found very few of the latter at Turin, Pavia, or Reggio, while at Perugia, Lucca, and Siena they abound.
