The Fog of London


Type: Gallery Image | Not Vetted



This painting is an example of the types of fog that Londoners would experience daily due to pollution. The fog relates to Bleak House with its heavy usage in chapters one and two, and is used as an allusion to how the courts of Chancery are obstructed with injustice like how the fog obstructs the city.
