EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Fancy fair at the licensed Victuallers Asylum" takes us back to 19th century London. The scene is bustling with excitement as men, women, and children gather in tents and marquees set up along Kent Road. This annual event was held at the licensed Victuallers Asylum, a place that provided homes for retired members of the licensed trade. The image showcases a vibrant atmosphere filled with laughter and joy. Women in elegant dresses mingle with gentlemen in top hats, while children run around gleefully. The fair offers an array of attractions and stalls selling various goods. Looking closer, we can see the intricate details captured by the English School artist who created this engraving. Each character's expression tells a unique story - from vendors enthusiastically promoting their wares to families enjoying quality time together. Published in 1844, this print allows us to glimpse into a bygone era when fairs were cherished community events that brought people from all walks of life together. It serves as a reminder of the importance placed on leisure activities during those times. As we admire this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, it transports us back to an enchanting moment where happiness radiates through every corner of the Fancy fair at the licensed Victuallers Asylum on Kent Road in London.
