The Theatre Royal, opened in 1766, is the oldest continuously working theatre in England, while Coopers’ Hall, the grand classical façade beside it, was built in 1743 as a guildhall for the Coopers' Company and later became the theatre’s entrance. Grunwell’s detailed brushwork brings the 18th and 19th-century streetscape to life, featuring figures in period dress, horse-drawn carriages, and bustling city life. The elegant neoclassical façade of Coopers’ Hall contrasts beautifully with the Georgian architecture of the theatre. The artwork captures the vibrancy of Bristol’s cultural history, making it a significant piece for lovers of theatre and historical architecture. Key Features: Historic Bristol landmark, home to one of England’s most prestigious theatres. Finely detailed depiction of King Street’s architectural elegance. Perfect for collectors of theatre history, British heritage, or Bristolian art. A timeless piece that evokes the grandeur and energy of 18th-century Bristol.
