| Caption | Sports of a country fair. Part the second. A nearer view of the same fair : the thick of the crowd ; stick-throwing for snuffboxes, oyster-opening, pocket-picking, and a round-about swing ; one of the boats is giving way, and a fair swinger and her swain are falling through. There is an inn where cordials are supplied, through the windows of which various scenes of love-making are visible. In the distance may be seen Polito's stage-booths, horse-racing, and other diversions. Artist: Rowlandson, Thomas, 1756-1827. Date: October 5, 1810. Sourced from Digital Commonwealth website. |
