EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Celerifere Celerifere of 1818," offers a fascinating glimpse into the early history of cycling. The image depicts an elegant rider skillfully navigating a cobblestone street on a Celerifere, an early type of velocipede or "hobby-horse," which was first introduced in France in 1791. The Celerifere was a significant innovation in transportation at the time, as it allowed individuals to travel faster and further than on foot, yet did not require the use of a horse. The rider in this print is dressed in the fashionable attire of the early 19th century, with a tall hat and a long, flowing coat. The Celerifere itself is a marvel of engineering, with its large wooden wheels and intricately designed iron frame. The rider's hands grip the handlebars, while his feet pedal in unison to propel the vehicle forward. The Celerifere was a popular pastime among the European elite, and its introduction marked the beginning of the cycling craze that would sweep across Europe and North America in the following decades. The sport of cycling would continue to evolve and adapt, eventually leading to the development of more modern bicycles and the widespread popularity of cycling as a form of transportation and recreation. This print, produced in 1818, offers a unique and intriguing window into the past, allowing us to appreciate the ingenuity and innovation of the early cycling pioneers. The Celerifere may no longer be in use today, but its legacy lives on in the rich history of cycling and the enduring appeal of this human-powered mode of transportation.
