EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and feast your eyes on this delightful collection of nine clown heads adorned on Victorian scraps, dating back to the 1890s. Each clown wears a unique hat, with extravagant ruffs and collars, adding to their whimsical charm. The clowns' faces are painted with bold red and white stripes, expressing a range of emotions from smiling jesters to grimacing comic relief. The clown on the far left dons a tall, bell-adorned hat, while the one to his right sports a monocle and a tongue poking out in playful tease. The clown in the middle wears a simple red hat with a white ruff, his hair styled in a voluminous, curled wig. The Victorian era, known for its strict social norms and etiquette, contrasts sharply with the carefree and humorous spirit of these clown heads. Their painted faces and exaggerated hairstyles serve as a reminder of the importance of fun and laughter in our lives, even during the most formal of times. These scraps, now preserved as a cherished piece of history, offer a glimpse into the past and the enduring appeal of clowns as symbols of joy and amusement. Each clown head tells a story, inviting us to imagine the laughter and fun that once filled the room where they were originally displayed. The intricate details of their hats, hairstyles, and painted faces make this collection a must-see for history buffs, art enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the beauty and whimsy of the past.
