EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of "Sells Brothers Enormous Shows, ca 1885" takes us back to a time when the circus was at the forefront of entertainment. Created by The Strobridge Lithographing Company, this stunning piece of art captures the essence of advertising and promotion in the late 19th century. The vibrant colors and intricate details showcased in this fine art image exemplify the artistic style known as Art Nouveau. This movement, characterized by its flowing lines and organic forms, perfectly complements the dynamic nature of circus performances. The poster features an athlete mid-air, defying gravity with his acrobatic skills. This powerful visual symbolizes not only the physical prowess required for such acts but also highlights the excitement and thrill that audiences could expect from attending Sells Brothers Enormous Shows. As a communication design masterpiece, this color lithograph effectively conveys alluring messages to potential spectators. Its strategic placement throughout towns and cities would have undoubtedly enticed people to experience firsthand what these shows had to offer. Now part of a private collection, this rare gem serves as a testament to both graphic design history and American culture during that era. It reminds us how marketing techniques have evolved over time while still appreciating traditional methods used in promoting events like circuses. Without mentioning commercial use or delving into company specifics (as requested), we can appreciate this photograph print for its historical significance as well as its artistic beauty – an enduring reminder of an enchanting period in entertainment history.
