EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this print of the Theatre/Bear Garden on Bankside, London. Dating back to 1560, these historical buildings were once the site of intense bear and bull baiting events that drew crowds from far and wide.
The image captures the essence of a bygone era, where entertainment took on a more brutal form. The Bull and Bear arenas loom large in the background, evoking a sense of both awe and unease at the spectacles that once unfolded within their walls.
As you gaze upon this piece from Mary Evans Picture Library, you can almost hear the cheers and jeers of spectators as they watched these fierce animals pitted against each other for sport. The history etched into every brick of these structures is palpable, reminding us of a time when such barbaric practices were considered acceptable forms of amusement.
Whether you are a history buff or simply intrigued by the darker side of human nature, this print is sure to spark your curiosity. Transport yourself to Elizabethan England and witness firsthand the sights and sounds of the Theatre/Bear Garden on Bankside - an experience not soon forgotten.
