The intricate details captured in this print showcase the remarkable architecture of this historic institution. Nestled amidst the serene landscape of Surrey, England, The Holloway Sanatorium stands as a testament to both beauty and purpose. Its imposing structure commands attention, with its towering spires and ornate façade evoking a sense of majesty.
