Housed in a quarter green morocco over green cloth clamshell case, spine with five raised bands, decoratively ruled and lettered in gilt in compartments. Some scattered light foxing but still an exceptional example in the original boards uncut. A rare and valuable study of London's principal theatres during the Georgian era, this collaborative work by antiquarian Edward Wedlake Brayley and landscape painter William Havell offers detailed historical and architectural accounts of venues such as Drury Lane, Covent Garden, and the Haymarket. Emphasizing both structural design and cultural significance, the volume captures a transitional moment in theatrical architecture and urban aesthetics. Issued by J. Taylor-London's foremost publisher of architectural works-this book combines scholarly narrative with visual artistry, making it an important resource for historians of the stage and Georgian design. Each of the fourteen colored plates is given significant supportive text on the history of the building and the plays historically performed. This was the final work of Daniel Havell (1785-1822).
