Step right up and feast your eyes on the mesmerizing world of circus performers. From the equestrian grace of the horsewoman (3671812) to the death-defying balance of the tightrope walker (3672656), these artists of the big top have captivated audiences for centuries. Adorned in the vibrant colors of a Guignolets Cointreau advertising poster (c. 1800), they dazzle us with their acrobatic prowess and whimsical clowning (The Clowns, 1920). Delve into the oil paintings of the past, such as "At the Circus: Horsewoman" (1888) and "The Tightrope Walker" (1886), and marvel at the advantages and shortcomings of their wooden props. But beware, not all is as it seems, as satire reveals in the engraving of "A Satire of Dr. Rock" (c. 1740). Experience the magic of the circus through the lens of a black and white photograph (Circus Performers, b/w photo). Come one, come all, and join the celebration of human agility, artistry, and the unquenchable human spirit.
