![[Bristol during the Reform Act Riots of 1831]](jpegs/41070.jpg)
[Bristol during the Reform Act Riots of 1831] View of the New Prison & Two Toll Houses, on Fire. As it Appeared, Oct. 30th 1831
J. Jones sc. Pub.d by A. Giudice [c.1832]
Etching and aquatint, sheet 95 x 120mm (3¾ x 4¾"). Very rare.
One of several prints made in the wake of the 1831 Bristol Riots. These were amongst the several manifestations of civil unrest which took place after the House of Lords rejected the second Reform Bill. The Reform Bill aimed to improve 'rotten boroughs' standards and to give Britain's fast growing industrial towns greater representation in the House of Commons. The riots continued for three days during which the palace of Robert Gray the Bishop of Bristol, the Mansion House, and private homes and property were looted and destroyed, along with the demolition of much of the gaol and toll houses. Work on the Clifton Suspension Bridge was halted and Isambard Kingdom Brunel was sworn in as a special constable.
