EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the excitement and energy of an athletic sports event held in America during the late 19th century. The image, dated July 12, 1887, showcases a thrilling penny farthing cycling race, with competitors vying for the top spot on their unusual yet iconic penny farthing bicycles. The penny farthing, with its high seat and large front wheel, was a popular mode of transportation and a symbol of the emerging cycling craze that swept across the country during this time. The scene unfolds in the bustling atmosphere of a shop or pavilion, where spectators gather to witness the competition. They lean in, fully engaged, some with hands shielding their eyes from the sun, others with cameras at the ready to capture the moment. The anticipation is palpable as the riders prepare for the race, adjusting their gears and taking deep breaths before mounting their bicycles. The air is filled with the sounds of cheers and encouragement, punctuated by the clatter of pedals and the rhythmic beat of the riders' hearts. The sun casts long shadows across the ground, adding depth and texture to the scene. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of athletic sports and the spirit of competition that continues to inspire us today. The image, sourced from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a rare and evocative glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the history of cycling and the cultural significance of athletic pursuits during the late 1800s.
