The engraving shows the domed building in a street setting. People can be seen both walking and stationary in small groups. In the center of the image three men and two horses and a dog are grouped beside a fire station. On the lower left corner sits a gas street lamp, and a covered wagon is disappearing out of view. On the lower right two gentlemen are in conversation.
The engraving was published in London by Simpkin & Marshall & I. T. Hinton.
