EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving transports us back in time to the bustling streets of 19th century London, specifically to the exterior of the historic Fortune Theatre located in the heart of Cripplegate, St. Giles. Sketched in the year 1840, this exquisite print captures the essence of a bygone era, offering a glimpse into the rich history of London's theatrical past. The Fortune Theatre, a prominent cultural landmark, was a popular venue for theatrical productions during the Victorian era. The theatre, which can be seen in all its glory in this image, was known for its grandeur and elegance, attracting patrons from all walks of life. The intricate details of the theatre's facade, from the ornate columns to the intricately designed windows, are beautifully rendered in this engraving, making it a must-have for anyone interested in London's historical architecture or theatre history. The Fortune Theatre, which was originally built in 1632, underwent several renovations and rebuilds throughout its history. This particular iteration of the theatre, which can be seen in the print, was designed by the renowned architect, Samuel Beazley, and opened in 1828. The theatre continued to operate until it was destroyed by a fire in 1859. This stunning engraving, which was published by ILN (Illustrated London News) in 1879, is a testament to the enduring allure of London's theatrical past. It invites us to imagine the excitement and anticipation that once filled the air as patrons made their way to the Fortune Theatre for an evening of entertainment.
