Black and white postcard showing the façade of Victoria Palace within a streetscape of Victoria Street in London. The theatre, with its symmetrical, classical façade in white stone, dominates the left hand side of the postcard. A giant central arch forms the centrepiece of the façade above a canopy over the main entrance. Above the arch Ionic columns frame an open loggia, flanked by festooned oval windows. The elevation is crowned by an entablature with a central pediment flanked by large tablature spelling the name of the theatre.
