EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled Bon Genre No. 91, transports us back in time to the streets of Paris during the early 19th century. The photograph showcases an extraordinary scene of an acrobat in a vibrant, historical costume, balancing on one leg atop a wobbling candlestick held steady by her partner. The couple's young daughter, dressed in a short netted dress and pantalettes, performs a handstand in the foreground, adding an extra layer of excitement and intrigue to the scene. The acrobat's costume is a stunning example of Regency-era fashion, featuring a blue robe with a ruff at the neckline, a red pelisse with tucks and scalloped hem, and a white spencer with a plaid pattern. Her bonnet, adorned with a red bandeau and fringes, sits atop her curly hair. The mother in the background, dressed in a scarf, costume with short hem and tucks, and a spencer with a high bosom, reaches out to give her daughter a coin, adding a touch of warmth and tenderness to the image. The acrobat's outfit is reminiscent of the Pierrot costume, a traditional clown costume that originated in France during the late 18th century. The costume's simple design, featuring a white shirt, black trousers, and a red bow, allowed for easy movement and flexibility, making it ideal for acrobatic performances. Bon Genre No. 91 is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of Parisian street performers and the intricate details of historical fashion. This photograph, from Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-have for anyone with an interest in history, costume design, or the art of the acrobat.
