Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur of Covent Garden Theatre, captured beautifully in this exquisite photo print. Taken from Ackermanns Microcosm of London, engraved by J. Bluck, this aquatint showcases the remarkable talent of Rowlandson and Pugin. The year is 1808, and as you gaze upon this image, you can almost hear the enchanting melodies filling the air. The interior of the theatre comes alive with a captivating scene - a singer takes center stage while musicians accompany her with their instruments. The audience sits attentively in their stalls and boxes, eagerly absorbing every note. This historic snapshot transports us to an era where society's elite gathered to witness unforgettable performances. The Georgian charm emanates from every corner, reminding us of an age when culture reigned supreme. Notably featured is Handel's organ - a testament to George Frederick Handel's enduring legacy. This instrument adds an air of majesty to the already magnificent setting. Sadly, Covent Garden Theatre met its tragic fate just one year after this engraving was created when it succumbed to fire. However, its spirit lives on through images like these that allow us glimpses into its glorious past. With meticulous detail and artistic finesse, Bridgeman Images brings history back to life through this stunning photo print.
