  • Digitizing John Ringling's Wisconsin Train Car at the John and Mable
    Digitizing John Ringling’s Wisconsin Train Car at the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota, Florida DAVIDE TANASI, KAITLYN KINGSLAND, MICHAEL DECKER, MICHAEL CELESTIN University of South Florida, FL, USA The John and Mable Ringling Museum in Sarasota, Florida is home to the private train car of John and Mable Ringling, named the Wisconsin after John’s home state. This unique train car served as the house on wheels for the tycoon and circus king during his frequent journeys around the United States. Since John was in charge of book the circus and purchasing new acts and equipment across the country, John and Mable found that most of their time was spent in this mobile mansion. In order to expand the accessibility of the train car to the public and to assist curators in 3D printing new train car parts for conservation and replacement. The University of South Florida’s Institute for Digital Exploration (USF IDEx) digitized the Wisconsin train car using terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) and digital photogrammetry. The completed digital model was uploaded to the 3D model sharing website, Sketchfab, for dissemination to the public, providing access to the interior of the car which is currently closed to museum visitors. Segmented portion of the 3D models were used to create individual 3D models of furniture, parts of which were 3D printed out in real scale and treated in order to resemble to originals made out of wood or metals. The virtual Wisconsin also served to provide valuable information and assist in understanding this Gilded Age train car to curators, researchers, and the wider community.

I am pleased to present our highlights of the past year to our Members, thank you for your support and encouragement. Despite our COVID-19 closure to the public, from March 17 to May 27, The Ringling accomplished a number of major projects in the 2019–2020 fiscal year. Most notably the Museum achieved its reaccreditation from the American Alliance of Museums (AAM). The year-long process to achieve reaccreditation is rigorous and focused on a self-study that reviews all aspects of our operations. The process and our final site review were both extremely successful and resulted in our reaccreditation through 2030. AAM has requested the use of a number of our core documents as examples of best practice to be shared with other museums and The Ringling was commended for the highly collaborative involvement of staff and board members in the reaccreditation process.

  • Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, 1924
    Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus, 1924 “Be cautious and bold … there’s a sucker born every minute.” —P.T. Barnum Dear Delegates, Hello and welcome to WUMUNS 2018! My name is Miranda Reed Twiss and I am thrilled to be your committee director for the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey majoring in Psychology and Islamic Studies with a minor in Arabic. As a former circus performer who almost went pro (I went to circus camp for a few summers in middle school), I’m extremely excited to kick off our very first circus committee! The committee begins in September of 1924. You are all members of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Combined Shows circus troupe, and you as a committee have full control over the circus. As both performers and administrators of the troupe, you are taxed with working together to make your traveling circus troupe as successful as possible. Your collective goal is to keep your circus running and successful and to increase profits both as a whole and individually. From traveling choices to split loyalties, from questionable motives to financial managing, the challenges you face stand to be a real three-ring circus. If you navigate the politics and inner workings of circus life well, you will find yourselves rich and powerful. If you fall into disarray, you could lose your jobs and your futures. Every delegate in the committee has equal voting power but varying access to individual resources, including money, outside connections, and specific abilities within the circus. Note that this is the circus, a business built around big personalities; ability to portray a character both in interests and in personality will be a key component to success in this committee.

January 29, 1986. On April 6 the National Gallery will join the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, Sarasota, Florida, in celebrating its 40th anniversary of state ownership. To commemorate this occasion, 33 masterworks from the Ringling Museum's extraordinary collection of baroque paintings will go on view from that day in the National Gallery of Art's West Building, until September 29, 1986. Formed chiefly during the 1920s by John Ringling, the famous circus entrepreneur, and his wife, Mable Burton Ringling, and housed in a lavish villa derived from 15th-century Italian prototypes, the Ringling Museum possesses a collection of Italian and northern baroque masterpieces that is exceptional in both quality and number. According to Laurence J. Ruggiero, director of the John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art, the reasons for John Ringling's fascination with the baroque for him the period betv/een roughly 1550 and 1775 are not difficult to ascertain: "In the 1920s and early 1930s, baroque painting was out of favor, so that a new collector could carve out a niche for himself in this area at relatively reasonable cost....More to the point was the personality of the man himself. There can be little question that he had an innate sympathy for an era whose character was much like his own.

Nemec, B.A., Florida Gulf Coast University M.A., University of Massachusetts Boston Directed by Professor Vincent J. Cannato Beyond the Big Top: The Legacy of John Ringling and the American Circus is a focused interpretation of the impact of the American circus post-Civil War through present day, most particularly that of circus impresario, corporate magnate, and philanthropist John Ringling, in what was once a quiet Florida fishing village named Sarasota. It is my observation that John Ringling, through moving the winter quarters of the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey to Sarasota, investing in a sizable amount of real estate, and spearheading a campaign to bring a world-class art museum and school to the area, played a key role in shaping Florida tourism, diversity, expanding cultural awareness, and boosting the local economy.
