Artist/engraver/cartographer: Unsigned. From An Enlarged Drawing Of An Extensive View Of London in 1647 , 7 Feet 9 Inches Engraved By Hollar. Provenance: ``Theatrum Ilustrata Graphic And Historic Memorials, Ancient Playhouses, Modern Theatres, Other Places Of Public Amusement In The Cities And Suburbs Of London & Westminister With Scenic And Incidental Ilustrations From The Time Of Shakspear To The Present Period`` edited by Rob Wilkinson. Type: Antique copperplate engraved print on stiff, good quality paper. The Bear Garden was an Elizabethan entertainment venue originally built as a bloods sports area which also served as a theatre. As the name suggests, it staged bear- and bull-baiting shows, both major spectator sports at the time. It was located on Bankside in Southwark on the south side of the Thames, across from the City of London. It was similar in design to (and nearby) the original Globe Theatre, which was rebuilt in 1997 and stands today as the well-known "Shakespeare's Globe Theatre"
