Catalogue Note
Le théâtre des Variétés fut construit par Cellerier en 1807. On voit à côté les deux rotondes du boulevard Montmartre. Celles-ci avaient un diamètre de 17m et s'élevaient à 7m de haut. Edifiées en 1799, ces deux rotondes, les deux premières de Paris, présentaient des peintures circulaires de très grandes dimensions, appelées des Panoramas. Source de distraction et d'instruction, ces panoramas connurent un tel succès que d'autres rotondes furent construites à Paris, et celles-ci furent détruites en 1831.
Un tableau représentant la même vue, mais avec de très nombreuses variantes dans les personnages, a été vendu chez Sotheby's Paris le 23 juin 2011.
