EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the enchanting world of Sangers Circus at Bognor, circa 1890. The talented photographer, W. P. Marsh, skillfully captures a moment in time that is both nostalgic and awe-inspiring. The image showcases the bustling atmosphere of Bognor's pier, with its wooden structure stretching out into the vast sea. Against this picturesque backdrop, we are treated to a mesmerizing sight - majestic elephants gracefully parading along the beach. These gentle giants appear almost ethereal as they navigate through a crowd of bathing huts and carriages. The composition evokes a sense of wonderment and curiosity about this bygone era when circuses were grand spectacles that captivated audiences young and old alike. It invites us to imagine the excitement that must have filled the air as families gathered on Bognor's shores to witness these magnificent creatures up close. With its attention to detail and impeccable clarity, this photographic gem from West Sussex Record Office's collection allows us to step into history for just a fleeting moment. It reminds us of our connection to those who came before us and encourages reflection on how entertainment has evolved over time. As we admire this snapshot frozen in time, let us appreciate not only the artistry behind it but also acknowledge the significance it holds as part of West Sussex County Council's rich heritage.
