Published in 1808, this work is a collaboration between the talented caricaturist and illustrator Thomas Rowlandson and the architectural draughtsman Augustus Charles Pugin. The series was produced under the direction of Rudolph Ackermann, a prominent publisher and printseller of the time, known for his high-quality illustrated books.

This scene is characterized by Rowlandson's keen eye for human activity and Pugin's precise architectural detailing, combining to create a lively and accurate representation of the period. The Corn Exchange itself was an essential institution in London, reflecting the city's role as a major center for trade and commerce during the Industrial Revolution.

Rowlandson's contribution to the piece is evident in the animated figures that populate the scene, each engaged in various aspects of trade and negotiation. His ability to capture the dynamism and diversity of the crowd adds a layer of social commentary, highlighting the economic vibrancy and the human element of the marketplace. Pugin's architectural expertise ensures that the structural elements of the Corn Exchange are rendered with accuracy and attention to detail, providing a faithful representation of the building's design and significance.
