EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and witness the chaos of St Etienne Circus in 1903 captured in this historical print from Mary Evans Picture Library. As a high wind sweeps through the circus grounds, the big top tent is lifted off its moorings, causing pandemonium inside as animals and humans alike panic and try to flee to safety.
The scene is one of pure chaos, with performers scrambling to escape the collapsing tent while acrobats desperately cling to their equipment. The sheer force of the wind has created a whirlwind of debris, adding to the sense of danger and urgency in this moment frozen in time.
This image serves as a reminder of the unpredictability of nature and the inherent risks that come with performing under such precarious conditions. It also highlights the resilience and quick thinking required by those involved in circus life, who must always be prepared for unexpected accidents like this one.
So step back into history with this snapshot from 1903, where you can almost feel the rush of wind and hear the sounds of panic as chaos reigns supreme at St Etienne Circus.
