The print, titled "London almanack for the year of our Lord 1793" showcases a remarkable illustration depicting the new house of correction for the County of Middlesex. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to an era where architecture was grand and prisons were a prominent feature of city life. The intricate details captured by the English School artist allow us to marvel at the craftsmanship that went into constructing such an imposing structure. The image serves as a window into society during this period, offering insights into both law enforcement practices and architectural trends. It reminds us that even in centuries past, cities faced challenges related to crime and punishment. Through this print, we can appreciate how almanacks served not only as practical tools but also as works of art that depicted important landmarks within their pages. This particular engraving stands out with its depiction of the new house of correction, showcasing both its significance within Middlesex County and its contribution to London's ever-evolving urban landscape.
