Like most of Marcel Dzama's drawings, this print of old-fashioned circus performers is reminiscent of antique illustrations from the 1900s. However, the simple rendering and elegant composition belie the dark subject matter. The work is like a bizarre dream set to the music that lines the background: an opera of sexual aggression, lust, and murder.
