The image, captured by Frank Watkins in 1884, showcases the architectural beauty and opulence of this renowned London landmark. As we gaze upon the print, our eyes are drawn to the exquisite details that adorn every corner of the theatre. From the elaborate grotto-like design on its exterior to the intricate carvings that embellish its principal entrance, it is clear that no expense was spared in creating a truly magnificent venue for entertainment. The image invites us to imagine ourselves stepping inside this majestic establishment. We can almost feel ourselves walking through the oriental lounge and admiring its lavish décor. Our minds wander as we envision taking our seats in one of those luxurious boxes or balconies, eagerly awaiting a night filled with drama and spectacle.
