EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Pentonville, Islington in London during the year 1815. The talented artist George Hollis skillfully captures the essence of this historical moment, showcasing Cold Bath Fields House of Correction with the magnificent City of London as a backdrop. The image transports us to a time when rural life and rustic landscapes coexisted with urban development and progress. As we gaze upon this watercolour masterpiece, we are reminded of the contrasting realities that existed within England during the nineteenth century. Cold Bath Fields House of Correction stands prominently in the foreground, symbolizing law and order amidst a countryside setting. This penitentiary served as a place for punishment and rehabilitation for those who had fallen afoul of society's expectations. Beyond its walls lies an idyllic stream flowing gently through lush green fields - an enchanting scene that seems worlds away from the harsh reality inside the prison walls. It serves as a reminder that even in times plagued by crime, there is still beauty to be found in nature. George Hollis' artwork not only showcases his immense talent but also provides us with valuable insight into England's history and social dynamics at that time. Thanks to Heritage Images and Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we can appreciate this remarkable piece today without commercial use overshadowing its significance.
