1899 Circus Parade Ramsgate

EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and feast your eyes on this enchanting scene from a bygone era: the Circus Parade in Ramsgate, 1899. This photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an age of wonder and excitement. The parade, a vibrant procession of performers and animals, winds its way through the streets of Ramsgate, a quintessential Victorian seaside town. The air is thick with anticipation as the circus folk, dressed in their most colorful and elaborate costumes, entice the crowd with promises of thrills and entertainment. At the head of the parade, a majestic elephant, adorned with intricate gold and red decorations, leads the way. Alongside the elephant, acrobats and jugglers perform daring feats, while clowns and mimes bring laughter and joy to the onlookers. The sounds of music and the scent of popcorn fill the air, adding to the festive atmosphere. As we gaze at this vintage lantern slide, we can almost hear the laughter and excitement of the crowd, feel the warmth of the sun on our faces, and smell the saltwater of the English Channel. This photograph is a precious reminder of the magic and enchantment that the circus brought to communities in the late 19th century, and it continues to captivate and inspire us today.
