About this work

This drawing shows the inside of the New Strand Theatre in 1832. Robert Blemmell Schnebbelie made it with pen and ink. It’s a view of the stage and seating from the back. The theatre had opened just a few years before this picture. You can still see details of the boxes and decorations. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see this drawing.
