EDITORS COMMENTS
In this vintage engraving, we are transported back to the year 1875, where the excitement of a Victorian Bicycle Race unfolds before our eyes. The print showcases two daring men engaged in an intense competition atop their old-fashioned bicycles, known as Penny-farthings. These peculiar contraptions with their large front wheels and tiny rear wheels were the epitome of cycling during that era. The scene takes place at Lillie Bridge Grounds in London, England - a renowned sports ground near present-day Stamford Bridge. As spectators eagerly gather around the track, anticipation fills the air for this amateur bicycle championship. The riders' determination is palpable as they pedal furiously, striving to claim victory and secure their place in history. This artwork by Duncan1890 beautifully captures not only the physicality of the race but also provides us with a glimpse into a bygone era when cycling was still in its infancy. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our endless pursuit of pushing boundaries. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from Fine Art Storehouse, we cannot help but be reminded of how far we have come since those early days of bicycle racing. Yet it also evokes nostalgia for simpler times when sporting events like these brought communities together and ignited passions within individuals. Duncan1890's work allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in creating such intricate engravings and the historical significance behind them. This piece truly transports us back through time, allowing us to witness firsthand one
