Bach, Christoph de. "Circus gymnasticus der Laura de Bach im Prater. Mit hoher Bewilligung wird die hier anwesende Kunstreiter-Gesellschaft des L. Dumos et Comp., erster Reiter des Franconi Circus in Paris die Ehre haben heute Mittwoch den 13. Mai 1840, die 24ste Vorstellung bei brillanter Beleuchtung zu geben". Typographisches Plakat. 37 x 21,6 cm. Wien, U. Klopf, 1840. Wohlerhaltenes, überaus seltenes Zirkusplakat des Wiener "Circus Gymnasticus" mit der Truppe der Kunstreiter um Laura de Bach, der zweiten Ehefrau des Gründers Christoph de Bach (1768-1834): "The Circus Gymnasticus (Gymnastischer Zirkel) was one of the earliest permanent circuses built in continental Europe. It had been designed by the fashionable Austrian architect Joseph Kornhäusel for the Latvian equestrian Christoph de Bach, who had settled in Austria around 1805. The Circus Gymnasticus’s elegant building was erected in 1808 on the Prater-the old Imperial hunting ground that had become Vienna’s favorite park, and a focal point for fairgrounds amusements ... De Bach and his company performed six months each year at the Circus Gymnasticus in Vienna, and spent the rest of the year touring the Austrian Empire, the German states and the Italian kingdoms, with an occasional foray into Russia. During Christoph de Bach’s reign, the Circus Gymnasticus had one of Europe’s finest companies of performers, including at a time or another such luminaries as the superb equestrian Alessandro Guerra; the ropedancer Ravel; the clown and tumbler Ludovico Viool; the equestrienne Virginie Kennebel; and de Bach’s second wife, the ballerina on horseback Laura de Bach" (Dominique Jando 210617). – Minimal knickspurig, aber kaum fleckig, wohlerhalten.
