The image, taken in the 1830s, presents Macmillan, a Scottish blacksmith, proudly perched atop his groundbreaking invention - a precursor to the modern bicycle. The Dandy Horse, also known as the 'hobby horse' or 'Celerifere,' was an early form of cycling machine, characterized by its large wooden wheels, high seat, and rudimentary handlebars. Macmillan's design, which featured a crank and pedals connected to the front wheel via a chain drive, revolutionized personal transportation, paving the way for the development of more sophisticated bicycles. Macmillan's facial expression in the photograph exudes a sense of accomplishment and pride, as he confidently grips the handlebars and gazes off into the distance.
