Astley's Amphitheatre was a significant performance venue in London, operating from the late 18th to the late 19th century. Originally opened by Philip Astley, a former cavalryman, the venue is often considered the first modern circus. Astley's Amphitheatre began as a riding school near Westminster Bridge, where Astley added performances by acrobats, tightrope walkers, and later, clowns. The venue evolved to include not only equestrian performances but also dramatic plays, becoming a cultural hub in London.

The depiction of Astley's Amphitheatre in "Ackermann's Microcosm of London" by Thomas Rowlandson and Augustus Charles Pugin, provides a vivid portrayal of the architectural and social aspects of this iconic venue. Published in the early 19th century, the work is part of a larger series that illustrates and describes notable buildings and events in London. The illustration and accompanying text in "Ackermann's Microcosm of London" highlight the unique structure of the amphitheatre, including its circular arena surrounded by tiered seating, and its ability to attract diverse audiences, reflecting the social fabric of London during that era.

Astley's Amphitheatre not only contributed to the development of circus arts but also played a pivotal role in the theatrical landscape of London, influencing other venues and entertainment forms. Its representation in significant cultural works like "Ackermann's Microcosm of London" underscores its importance in London's cultural history and its impact on public entertainment.
