EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the whimsical world of the circus, where a pony and clown take a well-deserved break from their lively performances. Painted by Samuel Henry Alken, this oil on board masterpiece measures 35x45 cm and belongs to a private collection. In this enchanting scene, we witness the backstage leisure of these entertainers as they enjoy their lunch in full costume. The despondent expression on the clown's face suggests that even performers need moments of rest amidst all the excitement. Seated under a vibrant carnival tent, they find solace in each other's company while relishing their meal. The horse nearby patiently awaits its turn for feeding, adding an element of wildlife to this delightful composition. Clowns and horses share an unbreakable bond within the circus realm, both being integral parts of its magical atmosphere. Alken's meticulous brushstrokes beautifully capture every detail - from the painted faces of clowns to the intricate costumes worn by these dedicated performers. This painting not only celebrates entertainment but also pays homage to farm animals like ponies and horses who play crucial roles in bringing joy to audiences worldwide. As we gaze at this extraordinary piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported into a world filled with wonderment and awe-inspiring talent. It serves as a reminder that even those who bring happiness to others deserve moments of respite themselves.
