EDITORS COMMENTS
In this poignant photo print, we are transported back to the final moments of a bygone era. Jacko Fossett, the seasoned clown, sits alone in the vastness of the circus ring after the last performance at Belle Vue in Manchester on January 30th, 1982. The image captures a sense of solitude and introspection as Jacko's distant gaze reveals a flood of memories flooding his mind. With his flat cap perched atop his head and cigarette in hand, Jacko embodies both weariness and resilience that can only come from years spent under the big top. The lines etched on his face tell tales of laughter shared with countless audiences over four to six decades. As he puffs on his cigarette, wisps of smoke intertwine with his thoughts - perhaps reminiscing about past glories or contemplating what lies ahead for him now that this chapter has closed. In this moment frozen in time, we witness not just one mature man but an entire world encapsulated within him. The photograph evokes a bittersweet feeling as we contemplate the loneliness that often accompanies entertainers once they step out of their vibrant stage personas. It serves as a reminder that even those who bring joy to others can experience their own moments of isolation. J. D Fowler's masterful composition immortalizes Jacko Fossett's quiet contemplation amidst an empty circus ring – an enduring testament to both the magic and melancholy found within the world of clowns.
