Vanity Fair was a British Magazine, published between 1868-1914, not to be confused with the American magazine of the same name. The magazine included articles on fashion, theatre, current events as well as word games and serial fiction. The cream of the period's 'society magazines', it is best known for its witty prose and caricatures of famous people of Victorian and Edwardian society, including artists, athletes, royalty, statesmen, scientists, authors, actors, business people and scholars.
