About this work
To the left, a wooden extension collapses on which the company of Theophilus Cibber and William Bullock performed 'The Fall of Bajazet'. Below it, a shop with porcelain. To the right of the center, another stage, 'Lee & Harpers Great Booth', on which the company of Hannah Lee and John Harper stands. Above them an image of the Trojan Horse, with 'The Siege of Troy is here'. To the right under an open window stands the magician Isaac Fawkes.
