EDITORS COMMENTS
Diavolino, the Daring Monkey Rider: Looping the Loop at the London Hippodrome in 1902 This photograph captures the moment of exhilarating daring and skill as Diavolino, a monkey, performs an impressive loop-the-loop stunt on a tiny tricycle at the London Hippodrome in 1902. Diavolino, a small monkey with a mischievous expression, wears a red and gold costume, adding a touch of elegance to his death-defying act. His trainer, standing nearby, watches intently, ensuring the safety of both Diavolino and the audience. The London Hippodrome, a renowned variety theatre, was known for its spectacular and diverse entertainment. Diavolino's act was just one of many extraordinary performances that drew large crowds to the theatre. The monkey's ability to ride a tricycle and loop the loop was a marvel of the time, showcasing the unique bond between man and animal and the limitless possibilities of the human-animal relationship. The photograph captures the essence of the excitement and anticipation that filled the London Hippodrome during Diavolino's performance. The audience, seated in the ornate and opulent theatre, watches with bated breath as the monkey completes another loop, their applause and cheers echoing through the theatre. The photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of live entertainment and the awe-inspiring feats that continue to captivate and delight audiences.
