EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent circus elephant performing at Astleys Theatre in London, back in 1853. The wood engraving beautifully captures the grandeur and agility of this majestic creature as it astounds the audience with its tricks. The image transports us to a bygone era, where spectators eagerly gather outside the theater's regal exterior, awaiting an extraordinary performance. In the midst of Victorian England, men dressed in middle-class attire marvel at the spectacle before them. With remarkable dexterity and strength, the elephant effortlessly balances on its front legs, executing a flawless handstand that leaves onlookers in awe. Its sheer size contrasts with its graceful movements, showcasing both power and finesse. As we delve into this historical snapshot frozen in time, we can almost hear the cheers and gasps from those lucky enough to witness such an incredible display of talent. This engraving serves as a testament to not only the exceptional abilities of these intelligent creatures but also their integral role within circuses during this period. The Granger Collection has preserved this remarkable piece of art for us to appreciate centuries later. It allows us to reflect upon our relationship with animals throughout history while celebrating their unique skills and contributions to entertainment.
