EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the moment of excitement and wonder as Herr Grais's trained monkey, Diavolino, successfully completes a daring loop-the-loop stunt on a tricycle at the London Hippodrome in 1903. The monkey's agile body is suspended in mid-air, clinging to the tiny vehicle with remarkable precision as it passes through the loop. The audience, mostly dressed in their finest Edwardian attire, watches in awe, their faces filled with amazement and delight. Herr Grais, a renowned animal trainer, had traveled from Europe to showcase his extraordinary menagerie of performing animals at the prestigious London Hippodrome. Diavolino, a small and nimble monkey, was one of his most popular acts. The monkey's ability to perform complex tricks on a tricycle, including the loop-the-loop, left audiences spellbound. The tricycle, with its delicate frame and small wheels, appears almost impossible for a monkey to maneuver, let alone perform such an intricate stunt. However, Diavolino's training and natural acrobatics allowed him to execute the trick flawlessly, leaving the audience in amazement. This photograph is a testament to the skill and dedication of Herr Grais and the incredible bond he shared with his animals. It also offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of early 20th-century entertainment and the fascination with trained animals and their daring feats.
