EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the scene of two dancing bears and their owners entertaining a crowd in the bustling High Street of Crickhowell, a historic market town nestled in the heart of Powys, Mid Wales. The year is uncertain, but the Edwardian era seems a likely candidate given the era's fashionable attire worn by some of the spectators. The bears, muzzled and tethered with ropes and chains, dance in a rhythmic step, their trainers skillfully guiding them with sticks. The town's shops and buildings form a picturesque backdrop, adding to the charm of this bygone era. Children and men, dressed in their Sunday best, gather around to watch the spectacle, their eyes wide with wonder and excitement. The atmosphere is jovial, yet the sight of the bears, muzzled and chained, cannot help but evoke feelings of unease and discomfort. The use of muzzles and chains was a common practice in bear training during this time, a cruel method aimed at breaking the animal's spirit and forcing them to perform. Despite the historical significance of this scene, it serves as a reminder of the ethical concerns surrounding the treatment of animals in entertainment. Today, such practices are considered inhumane and have been banned in many parts of the world. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the history of Crickhowell and the role of bears in entertainment during the Edwardian era.
