EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the vibrant and competitive world of street entertainment in late 19th century London. The image features an unnamed entertainer, who with unwavering determination and skill, earns his living through the art of juggling on the bustling city pavements. The year is circa 1870, a time when London's streets were teeming with a diverse array of performers, each vying for the attention and coins of passersby. The entertainer in this photograph is but one of many, including acrobats, escape artists, and strong men, who plied their trade on the pavements. The competition was fierce, with each performer striving to outdo the others in a bid to attract and retain the crowd's interest. The entertainer in this photograph, however, seems undeterred by the competition, focusing intently on his act, his face a mask of concentration as he expertly juggles a series of balls in mid-air. Despite the challenges and competition, the street entertainers of London continued to work hard, bringing joy and wonder to the people, one coin and one spectator at a time. This photograph is a testament to their resilience, their artistry, and their unwavering dedication to their craft.
