EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1903, showcases the renowned cat trainer Herr Litz in the midst of a mesmerizing performance with his feline companions at the Hippodrome Theatre in London. The image transports us back to the early 1900s, an era when animal acts were a popular draw for audiences seeking entertainment. Herr Litz, with his distinctive handlebar mustache and dapper attire, stands confidently before his audience, commanding their attention as he readies his first performer. A magnificent tiger, its stripes glistening in the stage lights, sits obediently on its hind legs, its piercing eyes fixed on the trainer. The tiger's regal demeanor is a testament to the remarkable bond between man and beast, as well as the skill and dedication of Herr Litz as a trainer. Surrounding the pair are a group of smaller cats, their ears perked and eyes focused intently on their trainer. These cheetahs, lions, and other felines are poised and ready to take their turns in the spotlight. Their agility and grace are on full display as they leap through hoops, walk tightropes, and perform other impressive feats, leaving the audience in awe. The Hippodrome Theatre, a legendary variety theatre known for its daring and dangerous acts, was the perfect venue for such a spectacle. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the art of animal training at its finest and highlighting the unique connection between humans and animals during an era when the boundaries between wild and tamed were truly blurred.
