EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken by Bernard Alfieri on December 1st, 1932, we are transported back to the mesmerizing world of Bentalls Circus. The focal point of the image is a fearless tight-rope walker gracefully suspended high above the ground, defying gravity with every step. With her body perfectly balanced and arms outstretched like wings, she exudes an aura of confidence and poise. The circus tent serves as a backdrop for this awe-inspiring spectacle, its striped fabric adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. Surrounding the performer are spectators eagerly watching her daring act from below. Their faces filled with anticipation and wonderment reflect their admiration for her incredible feat. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulates the essence of entertainment in the early 20th century. The circus was a place where people could escape reality and be transported into a world filled with excitement and thrills. It was an era when clowns brought laughter, acrobats showcased their skills, and tight-rope walkers pushed boundaries. Bernard Alfieri's masterful composition allows us to relive this magical experience through his lens. As we gaze upon this print from Memory Lane Prints, we can't help but feel inspired by the bravery exhibited by these performers who risked it all for our amusement.
