The circus spoke French
Around 1900, Barnum & Bailey toured Europe with posters printed in French, even though they came from Strobridge Litho in Cincinnati and New York. The American circus was thus sold as an international spectacle long before Hollywood did the same with film.

The story behind the motif
Poster with a vintage advertisement for Barnum & Bailey's Greatest Show on Earth, one of the most famous circuses in the world during the late 1800s and early 1900s.
The poster depicts a group of men and women performing impressive acrobatics in a stylized setting and beautiful salon.
The poster is an example of the marketing strategy Barnum & Bailey used to position their circus as the greatest and most magnificent entertainment in the world. The combination of colorful and detailed illustrations with a classic and sophisticated atmosphere also attracted more exclusive audiences.
Frame not included.
