These three prints show scenes from a play called Henry VIII. They were made in 1839 by J. H. Hawkins. Each print shows a different moment from the 1838–39 season at Covent Garden Theatre. The prints were published by James Pattie. They come in a paper cover with the title “Recollections of The Scenic Effects of Covent Garden Theatre.” Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
