EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Paul Emile Theodore Ducos in 1886, transports us back to a time when traveling circuses were a popular form of entertainment. The image captures a group of wrestlers from the circus as they pass through the quaint town of Andelot Blancheville in Haute Marne, France. The wrestlers are depicted in their wrestling attire, exuding strength and confidence. Their muscular physiques are accentuated by the photographer's skillful use of light and shadow. Each wrestler's face tells a unique story - some appear stoic and focused while others wear expressions of determination or even amusement. Ducos' composition allows us to appreciate both the individuality of each wrestler and their collective presence within this tight-knit community on wheels. The blurred background suggests movement and adds an element of dynamism to the scene, hinting at the transient nature of circus life. Through this photograph, we catch a glimpse into a bygone era where physical prowess was celebrated as both artistry and sport. It serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of human combat sports like wrestling throughout history. Leonard de Selva's careful preservation and presentation of this print ensures that its timeless beauty can be enjoyed for generations to come. As we admire this remarkable piece captured over 135 years ago, we are reminded not only of our fascination with spectacle but also our shared humanity across time and cultures.
