The Composition of The Circus
The Circus is a large oil on canvas painted by George Wesley Bellows in 1912. The scene depicts a circus performance occurring within a tent, characterized by a lively atmosphere. In the center of the composition, two horses are prominently featured; one is located towards the left side of the frame, while the other is positioned closer to the right. A man is depicted riding on top of one of the horses.
Surrounding the central performance is an audience consisting of at least thirteen people. These spectators are positioned in various locations throughout the scene, with some standing close together and others more spread out.
