EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 16th century, where we witness a group of skilled gymnasts rehearsing their somersaults. The illustration is part of a facsimile from "Exercises in Leaping and Vaulting" by A. Tuccaro, published in 1599. The image exudes an air of excitement and anticipation as the acrobats showcase their agility and strength. Each performer is frozen mid-air, suspended momentarily during their daring flips and tumbles. Their bodies contort gracefully, defying gravity with precision and grace. The lithograph captures the essence of this ancient art form, highlighting the dedication required to master such intricate movements. It serves as a testament to the timeless appeal of acrobatics throughout history. Published in 1847 by Paul Lacroix as part of his work "Le Moyen Age et La Renaissance" this print showcases French craftsmanship at its finest. The attention to detail brings each figure to life, allowing us to appreciate not only their physical prowess but also the beauty inherent in their actions. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are reminded that somersaults transcend time and culture – they have been practiced for centuries by individuals driven by passion for movement and performance. This image invites us into a world where athleticism meets artistry, leaving us inspired by these talented gymnasts who continue to captivate audiences even today.
