'Frost on the Thames', 1788-1789, (1930). A frost fair on the River Thames in the City of London, 'sketched on the spot'. People warm themselves round a brazier, and temporary taverns and hotels have been set up. In the distance are St Paul's Cathedral, the Monument, and the Tower of London, with the masts of ships frozen in the ice. Painting in the Yale Center for British Art, New Haven, Connecticut, USA. From "The Connoisseur", Volume 86, edited by C. Reginald Grundy. [The Connoisseur Ltd, London, 1930]
