EDITORS COMMENTS
This reproduction of a vintage poster, designed by Ernest Vulliemin around the turn of the 20th century, showcases the Peugeot cycle brand in an elegant and whimsical way. The image features a cuirassier, a type of heavily armored cavalryman, engaged in conversation with a postman as they both pause on the side of the road. The cuirassier, with his sword at his side and his horse at ease, seems to be taking a momentary break from his military duties. The postman, dressed in his uniform and holding a letter, appears to be delivering a message to the soldier. The background of the poster is adorned with lush greenery, suggesting a pastoral setting. The Peugeot bicycle, with its distinctive red and white branding, is prominently displayed in the foreground. The bicycle's large front wheel and smaller rear wheel are a testament to the innovative design of the Peugeot cycles during this era. The caption below the image reads, "Peugeot Cycles, Transport Facile et Rapide" or "Peugeot Cycles, Easy and Quick Transport." Ernest Vulliemin, a renowned French graphic designer, created this poster for Peugeot cycles around 1900. The poster was likely produced in the town of Valentigney, in the Doubs region of France, where Peugeot's bicycle manufacturing operations were based. The image of a soldier on horseback conversing with a postman on a Peugeot bicycle was an effective way to convey the idea that the bicycle was a reliable and versatile mode of transportation, suitable for both military personnel and civilians alike.
