This print shows the inside of a theater built in 1810. It’s a black-and-white image made by a French artist who lived in Britain. The theater’s name is New Covent Garden. The print was published by Rudolph Ackermann, a popular printseller in London. It captures the rows of seats and the stage’s shape, just as people saw it then. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints like this.
