The image, captured by Henry William Brewer, showcases both the exterior and interior views of this architectural masterpiece. As we gaze upon the print, we are immediately struck by the sheer magnificence of the opera house. Its elegant façade stands tall against a bustling London backdrop, exuding an air of regality and sophistication.

Inside, we catch a glimpse of what awaits theater-goers on that momentous Saturday evening: rows upon rows of plush velvet seats bathed in soft candlelight. The stage is set for an unforgettable performance as anticipation fills every corner of this opulent space. The date etched at the bottom reminds us that it was January 31st, 1891 when history was made within these very walls.
