Sketches suggested by the closing of the International Fisheries Exhibition, 1883. 'Our Engaged Ones; the 1/6 Dinner Consumers; the Flirt; the Dude or Common Masher; Our Artist - occupation gone; People who are Sorry; Provincials - too late; the Penny Vendor; the Pickpocket; Dan Godfrey; People who are Glad: Law & Order; Travellers by Metropolitan Railway; the Overworked Cooks; The Grimsby Netters; The Stall Keepers...The closing of this popular exhibition, on Wednesday last, is an event of considerable social interest to Londoners and visitors to London. Our Artist's Sketches attempt to present the different feelings, whether of regret or of relief, which he supposes to be experienced at this termination by various classes of people, including those who have been in compulsory attendance, those who may have got tired of the subject, and those who had other ends in view, and who may possibly have been disappointed...The total number of admissions to the Fisheries Exhibition, in six months, has been 2,800,000'. From "Illustrated London News", 1883.
