About this work

This print shows the outside of the Crown Theatre in Peckham. It’s a view you’d see on the street, not inside the crowd. The artist added a small map of the theatre’s layout at the top left. The print mixes two styles: Impressionism and Realism. It captures light and movement like Impressionism, yet keeps sharp details typical of Realism. Your next stop is the Victoria and Albert Museum.
