Created in the 19th century, this painting depicts a scene from the press yard at Newgate Prison, a notorious London jail that operated from the 12th century until 1902. Nash's work captures the grim atmosphere of the prison yard, which was often the site of public executions and other forms of punishment.

Frederick Nash was a member of the Society of Painters in Water Colours and became well-known for his detailed and atmospheric portrayals of urban architecture and ruins.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical value, providing insight into the penal practices and architecture of the time.

The painting is characterized by Nash's precise line work and his use of light and shadow, which imbue the scene with a sense of foreboding. The somber mood of the painting reflects the public's mixed feelings towards the penal system of the era, which was often criticized for its harshness and spectacle.
