EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the grandeur of Astleys Ampitheatre, as depicted in Ackermanns Repository of Arts. The year is 1808, and the hand-coloured aquatint by Rowlandson and Pugin transports us to a world filled with excitement and wonder. The image showcases the interior of this iconic London venue, bustling with energy and anticipation. Chandeliers hang from above, casting a warm glow on the scene below. Balconies are filled with eager audience members eagerly awaiting the daring performance about to unfold. In the center ring, we see a group of talented entertainers showcasing their skills. Among them are daredevils balancing precariously on galloping horses, defying gravity with every graceful movement. Their fearless acts captivate both young and old alike. The atmosphere is electric as these performers push boundaries and test their limits for our amusement. The horses gallop effortlessly around the arena while maintaining perfect balance under their skilled riders' guidance. Astleys Ampitheatre was renowned for its spectacular circus performances that left spectators awestruck night after night. This image captures just a glimpse of the magic that unfolded within its walls. As we admire this remarkable piece from The Stapleton Collection, it serves as a reminder of how art can transport us through time and allow us to experience moments long gone but forever etched in history's tapestry.
