''Jules-Arsène Garnier, après des études à l'Ecole des Beaux-Arts dans l'atelier de Gérome prit une place marquante parmi les peintres d'anecdotes de son époque''. (in Bénézit). ''Ce que nous publions ici, c'est, proprement racontée par la plume et par l'image, la monographie d'un peuple inconnu. Ses lois, ses moeurs,des traditions, ses secrets, ses espérances ont été saisis, fixés malgré les témoignages vacillants et contradictoires. On suivra ainsi le bateleur depuis sa naissance dans la caravane foraine jusqu'à son apothéose dans la frise du cirque. Et tout de même pénétrera-t-on dans les écuries pour surprendre les secrets du dresseur, du dompteur de l'écuyer, dans les loges pour demander au clown le récit de ses avatars et par quelle fortune, devenu gentleman, il s'est un jour rencontré au pays de fantaisie avec le gentleman devenu clown.'' Table : Les Banquistes - La baraque - Les dresseurs - Les dompteurs - Les écuyers - L'hippodrome - Les équilibristes - Les gymnasiarques - Les clowns - Les cirques privés.
