EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and witness the chaotic scene unfolding in the big top as captured by John Hassall in his iconic print, "The Telegram." In this historical snapshot from 1932, a clown is momentarily distracted from his lively performance by the inconvenient arrival of a telegram boy. The look of surprise on the clown's face is palpable as he tries to make sense of this unexpected interruption.
Hassall masterfully portrays the bustling atmosphere of the circus with vivid colors and intricate details that bring this moment to life. From the towering tent poles to the playful antics of other clowns in the background, every element adds to the charm and whimsy of this scene.
As we peer into this snapshot of history, we are reminded of simpler times when telegrams were a common form of communication and circuses were a beloved form of entertainment for people of all ages. The juxtaposition between old-world charm and modern convenience creates a delightful tension that draws us further into this image.
So take a step back in time with "The Telegram" and immerse yourself in the magic and wonder of Hassall's interpretation of circus life. Let yourself be transported to an era where clowns reigned supreme and every performance was filled with surprises at every turn.
