This print shows a theater from way back in 1811. William Capon drew the outside and also a bird’s-eye layout of the stage inside. Robert Wilkinson printed it that same year. It’s one of the earliest detailed views of London’s Theatre Royal Drury Lane. The artist drew both the building’s front and a map-style plan below.
