EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Encampment of Travelling Showmen" takes us back to a bygone era filled with excitement and wonder. Created by the talented artist Henry Charles Seppings Wright in 1891, this print offers a glimpse into the vibrant world of travelling showmen. In this scene, we find ourselves amidst a bustling encampment where colourful carts are drawn by majestic horses. The showmen have set up their caravans, creating a lively atmosphere that is both enchanting and mysterious. The air is filled with anticipation as visitors eagerly explore the various attractions on offer. The image transports us to a time when entertainment was brought directly to communities through these nomadic performers. From acrobats and magicians to fortune-tellers and musicians, these travelling showmen captivated audiences with their unique talents. As we observe the intricately detailed engraving, we can almost hear the laughter of children and feel the energy emanating from this temporary village on wheels. The presence of animals adds an extra layer of charm; horses graze peacefully nearby while other farm animals add life to the scene. This remarkable artwork not only captures a specific moment in history but also invites us to reflect on our own fascination with spectacle and entertainment. It serves as a reminder that even in times long past, humans sought joy and amusement just as fervently as we do today.
