EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured lithograph by Joseph Strutt depicts various scenes of Medieval trained bears from the 10th and 14th centuries in England. The top image shows Anglo-Saxon gleemen, or entertainers, performing over a trained bear. They use sticks and horns to control the animal, as the crowd looks on in awe. The middle scene features a juggler skillfully balancing objects while a drummer, with a chained bear, beats the drum in the background. The bottom image portrays a woman dancing in front of a bear, which is chained to its master but goaded with a scourge to attack. These performances were popular forms of entertainment during the Middle Ages, showcasing the unique bond between humans and their trained animals. The intricate details and vibrant colours of this lithograph bring the past to life, allowing us to imagine the excitement and wonder of these ancient spectacles.
