EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the vibrant world of Astleys Amphitheatre in London, as it appeared in 1777. Created by artist William Capon in 1840, this illustration showcases the interior view of the iconic amphitheater that was known as the birthplace of modern circus. Philip Astley, often referred to as the father of modern circus, founded this renowned establishment. The image captures a bustling scene filled with acrobatics, animals, and horses. Performers can be seen riding and showcasing their skills within the ring while spectators marvel at their extraordinary feats. The architectural beauty of the building is also highlighted in this print. The grandeur and elegance are evident through its intricate design and majestic presence. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are transported to a time when entertainment was brought alive through daring acts performed under one roof. Capon's monochrome depiction adds an air of nostalgia to this piece, emphasizing its connection to both the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This print serves as a window into London's rich cultural history and reminds us of how far circus arts have come since Philip Astley first revolutionized them. As we admire this remarkable composition by William Capon, we cannot help but appreciate his ability to capture not only a moment frozen in time but also an entire era defined by wonderment and spectacle.
