EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving from the 19th century titled "Wonders of Animal Training" showcases the incredible artistry and skill involved in training animals for entertainment purposes. The print, part of a private collection, takes us back to a time when circuses were filled with awe-inspiring acts featuring various creatures. In this enchanting scene, we are transported to a German circus where an array of magnificent animals take center stage. A majestic giraffe gracefully balances on its hind legs while a fearless lion leaps through flaming hoops. An elephant demonstrates its strength by carrying multiple riders on its back, while a hippopotamus wows the audience with its ability to perform tricks. The artist's attention to detail is evident as each animal is meticulously depicted in all their glory. From the elegant giraffe's elongated neck to the fierce expression on the lion's face, every creature exudes power and grace. This engraving not only celebrates the wonders of animal training but also provides insight into German culture during that era. It serves as a reminder of how humans have long been fascinated by wildlife and their ability to be trained for our amusement. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we can't help but marvel at both the beauty of these wild creatures and the dedication it took to train them. It serves as a testament to humanity's ongoing fascination with animals and our desire for entertainment throughout history.
