'Southwark Fair. (After Hogarth's Picture)', (c1878). After 'Southwark Fair', 1733, by William Hogarth. A rowdy crowd is enjoying the festivities in Borough High Street, near St George the Martyr, London.

The fair was held annually for two weeks in September, and was abolished in 1762. From Old and New London: A Narrative of Its History, Its People, And Its Places. The Southern Suburbs, Volume VI, by Edward Walford. [Cassell, Petter, Galpin & Co., London, Paris & New York, c1878]
