"Sketch to Illustrate the Passions Suspense or Expectation" is a notable work by the 19th-century British painter Richard Dadd, renowned for his intricate and fantastical artworks. Created during a period when Dadd was confined to Bethlem Royal Hospital, also known as Bedlam, due to the onset of psychiatric illness, this work is part of a series that delves into the theme of human passions and emotions. Dadd's life and art were profoundly affected by his mental state, and his works from this period are often interpreted as reflections of his inner turmoil and the Victorian society's understanding of mental illness.

This particular sketch, as suggested by its title, explores the theme of suspense or expectation, emotions that are characterized by a state of uncertainty and anticipation for future events. Dadd's approach to illustrating such abstract concepts often involved allegorical and symbolic imagery, drawing on elements of fairy tales, mythology, and the supernatural, which were prevalent in his oeuvre. The artwork is executed with the meticulous attention to detail that is characteristic of Dadd's style, and it likely features figures or scenes that evoke a sense of waiting or foreboding, although the exact composition and elements of the sketch are not well-documented in public sources.

As with many of Dadd's pieces from his hospital years, "Sketch to Illustrate the Passions Suspense or Expectation" reflects the artist's technical skill and unique vision, while also providing insight into the psychological landscape of an individual grappling with mental illness during the Victorian era. The work is an important piece within Dadd's broader body of art, contributing to the understanding of his legacy as an artist who continued to create compelling and complex art under the constraints of institutionalization.
