    • Cirque d'Hiver. ca. 1900.
      Nov. 12, 2023

      Cirque d'Hiver. ca. 1900.

      Est: $1,700 - $2,000

      ARTIST: JEAN-ALCIDE-HENRI BOICHARD (1817-?) SIZE: 36 x 50 5/8 in./91.4 x 128.6 cm PRINTER: Affiches V. Palyart, Paris DESCRIPTION: Little is known of lion tamer Countess X; her mask doubled as a stylish accessory and a means to conceal her identity. However, an 1896 review provides the following insight on her performances: "The Countess has been training these beasts for the last fifteen months, but she does not seem to have subdued their savage nature to any great extent. Her only protection is afforded by a wooden shield, which she violently thumps upon the ground to emphasize her orders. At times she brandishes a whip, at others she holds a thin bar of bright metal in her hand; but she never uses either of these weapons. The nearest approach to taming the lions consists in the evident appreciation of her coaxing tones of voice and the tickling of the nose by the playful application of the thong of the whip" (The Sketch, Vol. 15). Perhaps by the time Boichard designed this image, she'd mastered beastly authority—but in any case, her ensemble remains fierce. (Art Nouveau; Circus; Animals; Cats)
