EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time in the heart of Victorian London, at the Royal Aquarium in Westminster, a young and daring woman named Zazel, born as Rossa Matilda Richter, captivated audiences with her breathtaking acrobatic feats. This enchanting postcard image, hailing from the annals of 1877, immortalizes the moment as Zazel, a petite and captivating figure, prepares to be launched from a cannon, her expression a blend of determination and excitement. The sensation that swept through the crowd as they watched Zazel's daring act was palpable, a testament to the power of live theatre and the allure of the unknown. The thrill of witnessing such a dangerous and audacious act, performed by a young woman no less, was a sensation that left a lasting impression on the public. As the smoke cleared and the applause rang out, the pages of Punch magazine echoed the sentiments of the audience. In their verses, they celebrated Zazel's courage and skill, her defiance of the boundaries of what was considered possible for a woman. With lines like "A daring young woman, with spirit so free, Who defies the law of gravitation's decree," they captured the essence of Zazel's spirit and the awe-inspiring nature of her performance. This postcard, a relic from a bygone era, serves as a reminder of the power of live entertainment and the indomitable spirit of those who dare to defy the odds. Zazel, the human cannonball of the Royal Aquarium, remains an enduring symbol of the sensational and the extraordinary, a testament to the enduring allure of the circus and the stage.
