Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases the transformation of Birmingham's urban landscape. The image depicts bustling street scenes filled with artisans going about their daily lives. The architecture reflects both the old and new as buildings are torn down and replaced with modern structures. This visual documentation serves as a testament to the impact of the Artisans and Labourers Dwellings Improvement Act passed in 1875. A sketch map adds further context, highlighting specific areas within Birmingham that underwent these improvements. It is fascinating to see how locality played a crucial role in shaping these changes.
