Mr Slop's Trained Horses poster
Lithograph, by Adolph Friedländer, 1904
Teylers Museum, Haarlem
 

Friedländer was one of the most prolific lithographic printers of his era, producing a vast run of vivid circus and fairground posters that helped define the look of popular entertainment. Here, his poster for Mr Slop's Trained Horses advertises a troupe performing set acts, from pulling a tiny carriage to balancing on props.
