EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1900s in Paris, France. It showcases an exquisite advertisement for Hurtu bicycles, a prominent brand of that era. The image captures the essence of transportation and road culture during this time. In the foreground, we see a group of men dressed in elegant attire, proudly riding their bicycles through a picturesque avenue. Their stylish costumes reflect the fashion trends of the Belle Époque period, adding charm to this snapshot from history. The backdrop is equally mesmerizing as it features iconic architecture such as the Arc de Triomphe and other magnificent structures that adorn the streets of Paris. These landmarks serve as a testament to both French artistry and industrial progress at that time. This advertisement was likely displayed during one of Paris' famous Universal Expositions, which were grand events showcasing advancements in various industries. The exposition held in 1889 is particularly notable due to its association with Gustave Eiffel's masterpiece - the Eiffel Tower. As we gaze upon this print today, it not only offers us a glimpse into bygone times but also reminds us of how far we have come in terms of technology and transportation. It serves as a visual reminder that even then, cycling was seen as an enjoyable mode of transport and an integral part of urban life.
