EDITORS COMMENTS
"This engraving captures the last remnants of Old Fleet Prison in London, as it stood in 1868. The historic prison, which had once housed notorious inmates such as the notorious Debtor's Prison, was in the process of being demolished to make way for new developments. In this image, we see a facade of three archways standing proudly against the backdrop of modern progress. The dome of St. Paul's Cathedral, a symbol of London's rich history, is visible in the distance. The scene is further brought to life by the hustle and bustle of everyday life. A horse-drawn cart passes by a low wall covered with contemporary advertising posters, showcasing the decadence and vibrancy of the city. In the background, a train runs along a railway viaduct, symbolizing the march of industrialization and technological advancement. The Old Fleet Prison, which had been in use since medieval times, was a significant part of London's history. Its demolition marked the end of an era and the beginning of a new one. This engraving provides a snapshot of a pivotal moment in London's history, capturing the juxtaposition of the old and the new, the historical and the contemporary." This image is an original engraving from the Illustrated London News, published on December 11, 1868. It provides a unique perspective into London's history and offers a glimpse into the city's past, making it an important historical document. The image measures 14 x 21 cm and is in good condition, with some minor signs of age and wear. It is an essential addition to any collection of London history or Victorian era memorabilia.
