EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time, showcasing the dedication and vigilance of police officers in early 20th century Paris. The image features a police cyclist and river policeman, both donning their distinctive uniforms as they patrol the bustling streets and tranquil riverbanks of the French capital. The vibrant colors of this lithograph by Oswaldo Tofani bring to life the energy and vibrancy of Parisian law enforcement during this era. With bicycles as their mode of transportation, these dedicated officers navigate through the city with ease, ensuring safety along the Seine River. The juxtaposition of urban landscapes against the serene waters creates an intriguing visual contrast that highlights both sides of policing duties. As guardians of order on land and water, these policemen embody strength, authority, and commitment to public safety. Le Petit Journal featured this illustration on April 8th, 1900 - a testament to its historical significance. This artwork not only showcases French culture but also pays homage to the rich history surrounding law enforcement in France. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, let us appreciate the timeless dedication exhibited by these brave men who protected Parisians over a century ago.
