EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Never before had the king of beasts become a balancer" by Achille Beltrame showcases an extraordinary moment in circus history. In this mesmerizing illustration, we witness a spectacle like no other - a lion, the majestic king of beasts, defying gravity and becoming a balancer. The image transports us to a vibrant circus arena filled with awe-struck spectators. The taut ropes serve as the stage for this incredible performance, as an Italian tamer fearlessly guides the lion across them. The crowd watches in amazement, their faces reflecting astonishment and wonder. This rare feat challenges our perception of what it means to be a lion. Traditionally known for their strength and ferocity, seeing one delicately balanced on tightropes is truly remarkable. It raises questions about power dynamics and pushes boundaries within the animal kingdom. Beltrame's skilled hand brings this scene to life with intricate details and vivid colors. Every element contributes to creating an atmosphere charged with excitement and anticipation. From acrobats performing daring stunts to wild cats prowling nearby, there is an undeniable sense of thrill in the air. This artwork captures not only the essence of circus performances but also celebrates human ingenuity in taming these magnificent creatures. It reminds us that even kings can defy expectations and leave us spellbound with their unexpected talents.
