Description | Engraving by P Bebgie, showing the west front of Robert and John Adams' Theatre Royal Drury Lane. In front of the theatre, the street is busy with activity, including a horse-drawn carriage, a sedan chair, a rider on horseback and a woman selling apples from a wheelbarrow. Two soldiers stand guard outside the theatre. A dog runs after the rider in the foreground of the picture. (26) and (26a) are smaller, later copies of this image. Published by John Cawthorn. |
