EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from the Barnum & Bailey Circus in 1888. Illustrated by Sarah J. Burke, it showcases performing lions and their skilled handler in an extraordinary display of human-animal connection. The image transports us back to a time when circuses were filled with wonder and excitement. The lions, majestic creatures from Africa, are tamed and trained to perform daring feats under the guidance of their handler. Their powerful presence is evident as they stand tall and proud, showcasing their wild beauty for all to see. The vibrant colors bring this scene to life, highlighting the contrast between the untamed nature of these animals and the controlled environment of the circus. Intriguingly, this illustration also hints at a darker side of entertainment during that era - the freak show aspect often associated with circuses at that time. However, it's important to appreciate this image within its historical context rather than passing judgment through modern lenses. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry captured by AF Fotografie, we are reminded not only of P. T. Barnum's Menagerie but also America's rich circus tradition dating back to the 19th century. It serves as a testament to our fascination with wildlife and our desire for thrilling performances that have captivated audiences throughout history.
