Artist: ANONYMOUS Size: 39 7/8 x 30 1/2 in./101.2 x 77.4 cm Condition: A-/ Slight tears and stains at edges. Printer: Strobridge, Cincinnati Reference: Ref: Phillips VIII, 71 Key Words: Circus Barnum & Bailey / Great Florenz Troupe. 1904. Superlatives abound in this advertisement for The Great Florenz Troupe, a 12-person assembly of buoyantly flexible acrobats, who, the poster proclaims, are "The greatest number of marvelous acrobats ever seen in one astounding act." The central cartouche presents the group in formal gowns and suits, while the surrounding landscape, otherwise idyllic, bursts with troupe members flipping, twirling, jumping, and climbing atop one another. A most marvelous depiction for "The world's largest, grandest, best, amusement institution" that is Barnum & Bailey.
