Framed Trapeze Art

More antique framed trapeze art like “Hiroshige III, Big French Circus on the Grounds of Shokonsha Shrine” are found too. These show, how even in antiquity, humans were able to perfect their physical forms to achieve the closest thing to flying in the air. Who would you not call to witness such a feat, if you could do so? “Trapeze Artists” Barnum and Bailey, 1896 are another series of advertisements and posters by the famous travelling performance arts and curiosity troupe Barnum and Bailey. The detail and the colors of these posters definitely make it a vintage piece of art.

Cirque du Soleil also has many framed trapeze posters to offer, especially during its stint in the nineteenth century. These feature a variety of performers, and yes, trapeze artists, performing what they do best, against a stark background of black. It is visually striking and very appeasing.
