EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Bartholomew Fair, London, showcasing the renowned Dutch woman who mesmerized audiences with her extraordinary talents. Created by Marcellus Laroon in the late 17th century, this engraving is a testament to Mrs. Cornelius Saftry's remarkable performances that enthralled spectators for decades. Mrs. Saftry was a trailblazer in her field, staging plays and rope dancing acts featuring "The famous Dutch woman's companies of rope dancers" during the annual Bartholomew Fair since 1677. What made her performances truly unique was her choice to don an androgynous costume, which continued to be worn by female acrobats well into the eighteenth century. In this particular image, we witness Mrs. Saftry displaying incredible balance as she performs acrobatics on both slack and tightropes. Her attire is equally striking; she wears a ruffled Holland shirt with frilled cuffs and a bow at the neck, complemented by sheer tights and men's trunk hose trimmed with fur. As we delve into this historical masterpiece, it becomes evident that Bartholomew Fair served as a hub for entertainment in London during those times. The fair brought together performers from various backgrounds - clowns, acrobats like Mrs. Saftry herself - all contributing to an atmosphere filled with wonder and excitement. Through this enchanting print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to experience the magic of Barth
