EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph by Joseph Strutt, titled "Juggler and Trained Bear, and Performer with Tabor Drum and Chained Bear," transports us back to the 14th century, showcasing the unique blend of entertainment and animal training that captivated audiences during this era. The image depicts two performers engaged in their art, each accompanied by a trained bear. In the foreground, a juggler skillfully maneuvers balls in mid-air, maintaining a focused expression as the curious bear looks on. The juggler's attire, consisting of a long tunic and a pointed cap, is typical of the clothing worn during this period. In the background, a performer strikes a lively rhythm on his tabor drum, accompanied by a chained bear. The bear, adorned with a collar and chain, sits attentively beside its trainer, its eyes fixed on the drummer. The performer, dressed in a short tunic and hose, wears a broad-brimmed hat and holds a pair of sticks to keep time with the drumbeats. This illustration is taken from Strutt's comprehensive work, "Sports and Pastimes of the People of England," published by Chatto and Windus in London in 1876. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this lithograph offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval entertainment, providing a captivating reminder of the rich history and cultural traditions that continue to inspire us today.
