Images of Madness (French: Images de la folie) is a documentary film about the art of mental patients directed by Eric Duvivier and released in 1950 in France.

A still from the film can be found in Amos Vogel’s book Film as a Subversive Art, who notes:

"… an unprecedented film document which, in drawings and paintings, takes the viewer through the universe of the mentally ill without explanation or analysis." - Amos Vogel
