"The theatre is apparently drawn from a box on the first tier. The left corner of the stage is shown with the prompter and another man standing in the wings. Almost half the orchestra, the pit, three tiers of boxes, and the lowest gallery are shown. Of the upper gallery only the balustrade and the extreme corner are visible. On the stage a man in Roman costume addresses a lady in modern dress who repels his advances; she is either singing or screaming. The house is crowded and the audience watch intently. The King and Queen are seated in the royal box; two men and a lady stand behind them. The figures are on a small scale, freely drawn with much expressiveness and humour. A representation of the theatre at that date, drawn apparently with architectural correctness."--British Museum online catalogue
