It depicts a view of a fair being held in the Borough of Southwark, then a separate settlement from London on the south side of London Bridge. Dating back to 1409, the fair had originally lasted for three days but by Hogarth's time it continued for around two weeks.

Today it is in the collection of the Cincinnati Art Museum in Ohio.
