1838 Activities Enjoying Fairs Frost Hilarious Skittles


EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to February 1838 with this print from Mary Evans Picture Library. The image captures a scene from the Frost Fair on the Thames in London, where people are seen enjoying various activities on the frozen river. In this particular snapshot, a group of individuals can be seen engaging in a hilarious game of skittles on the ice. Laughter and camaraderie fill the air as they take turns trying to knock down the pins with their wooden balls. The joy and excitement radiating from their faces is palpable, showcasing just how much fun they are having during this unique event. The Frost Fair was a rare occurrence that took place during severe winters when the Thames froze over, allowing for makeshift stalls and entertainment to be set up directly on the ice. It provided Londoners with a welcome break from their daily routines and an opportunity to partake in winter festivities unlike any other. This historical photograph not only offers a glimpse into past traditions and customs but also serves as a reminder of the resilience and creativity of those who lived through such challenging times. It is truly a testament to human ingenuity and spirit, captured beautifully by Mary Evans Prints Online for all to admire.
