New Music-Hall, Evan's Hotel, Covent-Garden, 1856. Creator: Unknown
New Music-Hall, Evan's Hotel, Covent-Garden, 1856. The new Hall has been built from the designs of Mr. William Finch Hill...Great brilliancy of effect is produced...by ten rich cut-glass gaseliers, or lustres for gas, eight of which have ten lights each, and two over the orchestra fifteen lights each; the entire number of gaslights being 120...The glass gaseliers...were designed and manufactured by Messrs. Defries and Sons...they are hung at such a height as to diffuse an abundant flood of light without fatigue to the eye...Around the sides of the room...are richly-ornamented open plates for the admission of fresh warm air, the vitiated being driven through the pierced panels in the ceiling, and thence through the louvres in the roof. The columns...are of Bath stone, fluted with wreathed Ionic caps...Over each of the eight pilasters there are figures...representing Poetry, Drama, Music, &c'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
