EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Milk Fair in St James's Park" takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a bustling scene filled with warmth and activity. The image showcases an abolition meeting held amidst the ruins of what was once a thriving milk fair. Created by S. T. Dadd, this print depicts the aftermath of an eviction that took place in London's beloved park. Intriguingly, we see a diverse range of characters and elements within this artwork. A determined proprietress stands behind her glass stall, showcasing her brindle cattle while evicted livestock remains scattered around the area. Despite the chaos caused by their displacement, there is still a sense of resilience among those present. This illustration originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on September 12th, 1885 - shedding light on the consequences faced by milk fair vendors due to agricultural shows gaining popularity over time. However, it also serves as a reminder of how even in times of adversity and change, communities can come together for good causes such as abolition movements. As we gaze upon this historic image captured by Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us appreciate both its artistic beauty and its ability to transport us into London's past where milk fairs were once cherished events held within St James's Park – now only remaining as fragments etched onto paper for future generations to admire and ponder upon.
