Il Ballo dell Orso, 1815
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a poignant print created by Bartolomeo Pinelli in the 19th century. The image captures a disturbing scene where an unfortunate bear, chained and muzzled, is forced to dance for its master's profit. As the captive bear reluctantly performs its cruel routine, miniature dogs dressed in outfits mimic the dance on their hind legs. A crowd gathers around this heart-wrenching spectacle. This engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the cruelty that animals endured during this time period. It portrays the exploitation of innocent creatures for human entertainment and financial gain. The concept of captivity is starkly depicted through the chains that bind both the bear and our moral sensibilities. The Italian street scene portrayed here reflects a dark chapter in history when such sideshows were considered acceptable forms of amusement. Men, women, and children stand witness to this sad display, perhaps torn between fascination and empathy for these mistreated beings. Bartolomeo Pinelli's monochrome artwork evokes strong emotions within us as we contemplate the suffering endured by these sentient creatures at human hands. This print stands as a testament to our evolving understanding of animal rights throughout history.
