This print showcases "The General Hospital, as it originally appeared" in all its historical glory. The engraving, dating back to the first edition of Hutton in 1781, offers a fascinating glimpse into the early days of this iconic institution. The image transports us to a bygone era, where we can see the grand architecture and intricate details that adorned the hospital's exterior. The English School from the 19th century skillfully captured every aspect of this significant landmark, preserving its essence for generations to come. As we delve deeper into Birmingham's rich history, we learn that this particular engraving was used as an illustration for Robert K Dent's book "Old and New Birmingham". Published around 1880, Dent's work aimed to document the city's past while embracing its progress. Thanks to digital restoration techniques employed on this print, we are able to appreciate even more nuances within the original engraving. It allows us to fully immerse ourselves in a time when healthcare looked vastly different from what it does today. This print is not only a testament to our collective heritage but also serves as a reminder of how far medical advancements have come since then.
