EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting engraving, dated circa 1888, captures the moment of a clown's daring attempt to learn the art of bare-back horse riding at a circus. The image, which showcases the rich history of the circus arts, depicts the clown in a vibrant red and white costume, his face painted with a cheerful grin, as he clings determinedly to the back of a majestic horse. The skillful trainer, dressed in a tailored suit and top hat, expertly guides the horse, ensuring the clown's safety and stability as he learns this challenging new trick. The intricate details of the engraving, with its delicate lines and shading, transport us back in time to the late 19th century, a period when the circus was a popular form of entertainment for people of all ages. The image also hints at the possibility of the clown attempting to fly, as a prop or a trapeze bar can be seen in the background. Regardless of the final trick, this engraving is a testament to the bravery, skill, and showmanship of the circus performers of the past. This historical print, with its captivating scene and intricate details, is a must-have for any collection focusing on the history of the circus, the art of engraving, or the evolution of circus costumes and traditions. The image, which measures 21 x 15 cm (8.3 x 5.9 inches), is a rare find and an essential addition to any historical or decorative display. The engraving, originally published by ILN (Illustrated London News), is a beautiful reminder of the thrill and excitement of the circus, a tradition that continues to captivate audiences around the world.
