EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a scene from the 17th century, where noblemen gather in an indoor circus to witness the thrilling combat of wild beasts. Engraved by Jan Collaert and published by Phillipus Gallaeus in Amsterdam, this illustration is part of the renowned collection "Venationes, Ferarum, Avium, Piscium" (Of Hunting: Wild Beasts, Birds, Fish). The image captures the intense spectacle as lions and bears engage in a fierce battle while dogs eagerly join the fray. The spectators are adorned in noble attire and can be seen wielding walking sticks as they observe with both fascination and excitement. This depiction raises questions about entertainment during that era and highlights the brutal nature of blood sports. The artist's attention to detail is evident as each animal's movement is meticulously portrayed. From attacking to pouncing, these creatures exhibit their primal instincts within this confined space. The clash between predator and prey creates a dramatic atmosphere that captivates both audience members and viewers alike. While this artwork offers insight into historical forms of amusement such as bear-baiting or lion fights, it also sparks contemplation on issues surrounding animal cruelty. It serves as a reminder of humanity's evolving relationship with wildlife throughout history. Overall, this engraving provides a glimpse into seventeenth-century society's fascination with spectacles involving animals while encouraging reflection on our treatment of them today.
