EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Eighteenth-Century Riding School, Showing the Transition to the Circus Ring, 1942" offers a fascinating glimpse into England's equestrian history. Taken from M. Wilson Disher's book "Fairs, Circuses and Music Halls" published by Collins in London in 1942, this image captures an important moment of transition within the country's entertainment industry. The photograph showcases an English riding school during the eighteenth century, where horses were traditionally trained for various purposes. However, as depicted here, this particular riding school is undergoing a transformation into a circus ring. This shift signifies a significant change in both education and entertainment during that era. The vibrant color palette enhances our appreciation for this historical scene while transporting us back to a time when gatherings like these were eagerly anticipated events. The print collector29 has skillfully preserved this snapshot of history through their meticulous work. Maurice Willson Disher expertly documents this pivotal period with his keen eye for detail and passion for capturing cultural shifts. His publication serves as an invaluable resource for those interested in understanding how society evolved from traditional riding schools to more flamboyant circuses throughout the eighteenth and twentieth centuries. This print not only provides insight into England's rich equestrian heritage but also highlights the importance of preserving our past through visual records like these.
