Best Mode of Going to Bartholomew Fair.
Designed and Etched by T. Lane.
Pub. by G. Hunt Corner of York St & Bridges St.
Fine coloured aquatint. Sheet 305 x 225mm (12 x 8¾"). Trimmed within plate, tear through title, laid on album paper.
A man smoking a pipe and carrying a cudgel, his body protected by a barrel with spikes, heavy boots protrunding from the bottom. Bartholomew Fair, held on the 24th August in Smithfield, was founded as a cloth fair in 1133. It expanded over the years to include sideshows, especially prize-fighters, musicians, wire-walkers, acrobats, puppets, freaks and wild animals, as illustrated in a famous view in the 'Microcosm of London'. However it also became increasing rowdy, with fights and muggings, as satirised here, and eventually the fair was suppressed in 1855.

Coloured etching. 349 x 254mm. 13¾" x 10".
Theodore Lane (1800-1828), was apprenticed to the miniature painter John Barrow, with whom he studied watercolour portraits and miniatures, exhibiting at the Royal Academy from 1819. His real talent, however, lay in his depiction of humorous subjects; a series of thirty-six subjects designed and etched by him, entitled The Life of an Actor, was published in 1825. Lane also etched a number of sets of satirical and comic prints of sporting and social life, and he became well-known for his caricatures of George IV and Queen Caroline. He turned to oil painting in 1825, and within two years was exhibiting work at the Royal Academy. Lane died at the young age of twenty-eight when he fell through a skylight.
