It was converted into a theatre by NW Cundy in 1811-1812, but closed in 1814. The building later served as a bazaar, then as the offices of a wine merchant before being demolished in 1937 to make way for a branch of Marks and Spencer

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the lush world of the Conservatory of the Pantheon, a vibrant oasis nestled in the heart of bustling Oxford Street, Westminster, London. This lithograph from c1830 captures a scene filled with adults and children alike, marveling at the exquisite array of plants and enchanting parrots. Designed by James Wyatt, this architectural gem was originally built as a place of public entertainment in 1772. Despite facing destruction by fire in 1792, it rose from its ashes and reopened in 1795 with great splendor during a masquerade ball. Over time, it transformed into a theater before eventually being repurposed as a bazaar and later serving as offices for a wine merchant. The image transports us back to an era when nature's beauty intertwined seamlessly with human creativity. The monochrome palette adds an air of nostalgia to this snapshot from the nineteenth century. It is fascinating to witness men and women dressed in period attire exploring this botanical wonderland that once stood proudly on Oxford Street. Sadly, progress took its toll on this historic landmark when it was demolished in 1937 to make way for Marks & Spencer's branch. However, through prints like these preserved at Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, we can still appreciate the grandeur that once graced our city streets. This print serves as both a testament to our ever-changing urban landscape and an invitation to cherish moments where man-made structures harmoniously coexist with nature's wonders.
