The print shows the exterior of the Theatre di San Carlo in Naples. It's interesting that this print was published in Naples by the artist himself, which might suggest a local appeal or interest in the theatre. The fact that it was printed in the 19th century also gives us a glimpse into the architectural styles of that time. You can learn more about similar prints at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
