A late 19th-century photography studio in America, A. M. Bliss & Co. left behind crisp albumen prints that document everyday life. Their Sanger’s Circus captures trapeze artists and crowds under striped tents, frozen in time by long exposures. Every crease of the canvas roof and tilt of a hat brim is still legible. Tap Sanger’s Circus to step into the sawdust and gaslight of the era.
