EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and welcome, one and all, to this delightful scene of holiday cheer and timeless entertainment! This photograph, taken circa 1890s, showcases four jovial clowns in the midst of their Christmas and New Year's Eve performance in the circus ring. Dressed in their vibrant, colourful costumes, these entertainers exude an infectious aura of fun and enjoyment. The clown on the left, with his red and green striped suit and yellow polka-dotted shoes, holds a fan adorned with blue feathers, adding a touch of elegance to his playful demeanor. The clown in the center, wearing a bright red and white outfit, dons a feathered hat and holds a duster, ready to sweep away any remnants of mundane reality. The clown on the right, dressed in blue and yellow, playfully balances a plate on his head while his companion, wearing a green and red costume, prepares to shave the beard of the clown in the center with a razor. The clowns' faces, painted with exaggerated features, express a range of emotions, from the tongue-out silliness of the clown in the center to the mischievous grin of the clown on the right. The mirror in the background reflects their joyful antics, inviting us to join in their comic relief and share in the spirit of the season. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of clowns as entertainers and the lasting impact they have on our collective memory of the late Victorian era.
