Abstract

Between 1850 and 1919, nearly thirty new cellular prisons were built in Belgium to facilitate the strictly cellular regime. Joseph-Jonas Dumont, Belgium’s most important prison architect in the first decade of the cellular building campaign, introduced the English neo-Tudor style in his prison designs. This paper explores the underlying motives and meanings of his stylistic choice.
