EDITORS COMMENTS
General Tom Thumb, born Charles Stratton in 1838, was an American circus performer and entertainer renowned for his extraordinary short stature, measuring only 41 inches tall. This photograph captures General Tom Thumb in an elaborate and intriguing costume as the famous French military and political leader, Napoleon Bonaparte. During the late 1800s, General Tom Thumb's unique talents and small size made him a sensation in the world of entertainment. He traveled extensively with the P.T. Barnum's American Museum and later with the Barnum & Bailey Circus, performing for audiences in the United States and Europe. His acts included singing, dancing, and playing various instruments, but none were more popular than his portrayal of famous historical figures, such as Napoleon. In this photograph, General Tom Thumb is seen wearing an impressive Napoleon costume, complete with a tall hat adorned with a golden eagle, a red military jacket, and a white shirt with gold braid. The detail and authenticity of the costume add to the allure of the image, further emphasizing the extraordinary nature of the performer. The photograph also provides a glimpse into the Victorian era's fascination with the unusual and extraordinary. General Tom Thumb's ability to captivate audiences with his performances and transformative costumes, such as this one as Napoleon, made him a beloved figure in the world of entertainment. This photograph serves as a testament to his remarkable talents and the enduring appeal of the unusual and the extraordinary in the human experience.
