Circus. Acrobats and Animals (France, circa 1870-1880) Circus. Acrobats and Animals (France, circa 1870-1880). Lithographed compositions, glued on thick wood (1.8 cm), cut to shape; each composition is made up of several elements of different shapes, so that by putting the pieces together judiciously, like a jigsaw puzzle, we can reconstitute each scene. This set includes nine compositions: acrobat-man on horseback (9 pieces), acrobat-woman on horseback (9 pieces), monkey-clown (5 pieces), couple of dogs in disguise (6 of 7 pieces), tamer and lions (10 pieces), acrobat on floor (5 pieces), couple of acrobats on floor (9 pieces), two scenes with elephant (11 and 12 pieces). The set is housed in a period wooden box with hinged lid, size 34.5 x 24 x 14 cm, small clasp (hook-ring) on the front. Circus scenes to build by assembling them in the manner of an elementary jigsaw puzzle. The constructions can be set upright or assembled flat. A fine curiosity on the theme of the circus.

Estim. 20 - 30 EUR
