EDITORS COMMENTS
In this image from 1895, a novice cyclist named Diana expresses her apprehension to her companion, Jack, as they approach a group of pigs during a leisurely ride. The transition from the traditional pastime of horseback riding to the modern and exhilarating activity of cycling was well underway in the late 1800s, and this scene showcases the excitement and fear that came with embracing new experiences. Diana's elegant attire, complete with a high-necked blouse, long skirt, and a hat adorned with a large bow, contrasts sharply with the rugged terrain and the unruly pigs that lie in their path. Her anxious expression and clutched handlebars reveal her fear of the unfamiliar force of the bicycle and the potential danger posed by the pigs. Jack, ever the supportive companion, offers to lead the bicycle past the pigs, no doubt reassuring Diana that they will make it through the encounter unscathed. The dynamic interplay between the old and the new, the fear and the excitement, and the elegance and the ruggedness of the scene make this photograph a fascinating glimpse into the past. The image serves as a reminder of the transformative power of technology and the enduring human desire to overcome our fears and embrace new challenges.
