Projet d'une salle de spectacle pour un théatre de comédie
A 1765 French architectural treatise by Charles Nicolas Cochin, engraved by Martin Marvie and published in Paris by Charles-Antoine Jombert, presenting a design for a comedy theatre hall. The plates are cutaway sections and a plan of tiered boxes, galleries and stage, with scale bars in toises. For a designer, they offer a clear study of how audience levels stack around a curved auditorium.
