The foxes as types of clown because I’m a freak and obsessed with clowns

❗️there is pictures of clowns on this post❗️

Neil Josten- Tramp clown!

The Tramp clown was inspired by homeless people late in the nineteenth century.

(The clown in this photo is Emmett Kelly)

Andrew Minyard- Mime clown!

Some clowns combine the art of mime with clowning.

(This clown is Marcel Marceau)

Aaron Minyard- Pierrot clown!

The embodiment of a certain strain of artistic sentiment: sensitive, melancholy, and intrinsically alone, playful and daring through the subversion of language while suggesting the fraught and facile nature of gender.

(This is Jean-Charles Deburau I think)

Kevin Day- Costume Clown!

a specific character ( such as a fireman, police officer, etc.).

(This clown is Frankie Saluto)

Nicky Hemmick- Auguste clown!

During most of the twentieth century, the Auguste clown was a stupid and clumsy character.

(This clown is Lou Jacobs)

Renee Walker- would also be either a mime or Pierrot!

Allison Reynolds- a Jester?? I don’t really know actually

A member of the household of a nobleman or a monarch employed to entertain guests during the royal court.

(Stańczyk is a painting by Jan Matejko finished in 1862.)

Matt Boyd- Also an Auguste clown!

Dan Wilds- Whiteface clown!

The Whiteface is the big brother of the clowning world: in charge, a know-it-all, a straight man setting up the situations that other clowns, like the Auguste or the Tramp, turn funny.

(This clown is named Francesco Caroli)

Seth Gordan- Creepy Clown!

The evil clown archetype plays strongly off the sense of dislike it caused to inherit elements of coulrophobia; however, it has been suggested by Joseph Durwin that the concept of evil clowns has an independent position in popular culture,

(Just think of pennywise or something LMAO)

So much happened this week. (In tags I'll rant about it)

N4 is coming and my prep is not at all good. Took a test today and i failed🥲. But i know my prep is soo bad,it was bound to happen. So have to study for that.

College exams are coming🥹 also have to study for that. The dissertation proposal is in the finalising stage,so that's good. But have to work on it properly imo.

Then i also proposed another research study to my professor and he has encouraged me to go for it. So,also have to work on it.

These very cutu plants in the scorching heat were a treat to eyes and mind.

Got this book from the library and I'm really enjoying reading the essays.

( correction in a tag- she scored less than me in class and she was all sad sad. With her i had to suppress my happiness at moments like these)

The Day the Clown Cried

In 1972, Jerry Lewis directed, wrote and starred in the movie “The Day the Clown cried” The story line: -Helmut Doork, a once great and famous clown, is fired from the circus. Getting drunk at a local bar, he pokes fun at Hitler in front of some Gestapo agents, who arrest and send him to a prison camp. Helmut angers his fellow prisoners by refusing to perform for them, wanting to preserve his…
