Nights at the Circus




In this picture Mignon sits forlornly in a bath tub just glimpsed through the half open door. The image is an etching using a method called aquatint.


In the circus ring, as the audience watches, the searing strains of music stirring the air, Mignon waltzes slowly with a tiger.
 

Fevvers takes to the air inside the Russian theatre, her wings unfurling as she ascends to the Gods.
