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.
