The two lines of the title are engraved in script below the image. The artist's credit "Pugh delin." is at lower left and the engraver's credit "Engraved by Isaac Taylor." at lower right. Beneath the title is the imprint "Published Aug. 11-1804, by Richard Phillips, 71, St Paul's Church Yard."
The plate comes from Modern London; Being the History and Present State of the British Metropolis, printed for Richard Phillips, No. 71, St. Paul's Church-Yard, by C. Mercier and Co., Northumberland-court, Strand, in 1804, and "illustrated with numerous copper plates." Many of its topographical views were drawn by Edward Pugh, a Welsh painter working in London, and engraved on copper by several London engravers, each of whom signed his own plate. The Drury Lane theater shown here was the large house designed by Henry Holland and opened in 1794; it burned down in 1809.
An unusual point of view and a natural choice for anyone who loves the stage.
