"Magician Palatini Poster Circa 1780"
Exceptional poster for a magic show by Mr. PALATINI and his equestrian academy of Russian and English horses. The magic part has 3 steps: 1: he will cut off the head of an animal, and if the animal is dead, he will bring it back to life 2: he will put something in the hands of one of the spectators and transform it what kind of beasts we want, even the rarest 3: we will also see a multitude of physical experiments which will delight the spectator with their dexterity. It will be followed by an equestrian show inspired by the great PEERDEN, famous English squire and his unprecedented feats. PALATINI settled in France in 1790, this poster in Dutch is undoubtedly a little earlier (between 1780 and 1790). Very rare and in superb condition: 22.5 x 36.5 cm the last 2 photos are automatic translations from Google.
