View of the Old Capitol Prison in Washington. The brick building, the lower half of which is painted white, sits at an intersection at the end of a row of buildings that line the street. A small crowd of men and women gathers at the front entrance beneath an awning. A horse-drawn carriage stands in the street in front of the entrance.
