EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in history when cycling was becoming a popular sport. The image showcases "The Coventry Machinists Company" an engraving from London Illustrated A Complete Guide to The Places of Amusement by Henry Herbert, published in 1883. In this enchanting scene, we see a group of cyclists gathered together with their tricycles and penny farthing bicycles. They exude an air of excitement and camaraderie as they prepare for a bike ride through the bustling streets of London. Among them is a female cyclist, defying societal norms by participating in this exhilarating sport alongside her male counterparts. The print beautifully encapsulates the spirit of adventure and freedom that cycling represented during this era. It transports us to a time when bicycles were not just modes of transportation but symbols of leisure and sporting prowess. With its impeccable detail and composition, this image serves as both a historical document and an artistic masterpiece. It reminds us how sports have always played an essential role in society, bringing people together across genders and social classes. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection on Fine Art Finder, we are reminded that even though times may change, the joy derived from riding bikes remains timeless.
