In his painting, "Circus," Auguste Macke shows the audience the tragic side of the circus. Behind the scenes, the circus people and the animals used each bear their personal struggle and plight. This painting depicts an accident at a circus. An injured rider is being attended to by his co-performers. The horse is being led away in the background. In the foreground, a figure with his back turned from the audience sits in silence, shocked and morose. The irony of merriment and tragedy is not lost on the artist, as evidenced by his deliberate use of bright colours and circus-perfect shapes and patterns.
