EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Granger Art on Demand takes us back to the late 1870s, a time when bicycles were still in their infancy. The image showcases a remarkable penny farthing bicycle, an iconic symbol of that era. Crafted with intricate detail through wood engraving techniques, this print beautifully captures the essence of this historic mode of transportation. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the high-wheeled penny farthing itself, with its distinctive large front wheel and small rear wheel. Its elegant design stands as a testament to human ingenuity and innovation during that period. A lone rider can be seen perched atop this magnificent contraption, exuding confidence and skill as he navigates through unknown terrain. Surrounded by a backdrop of nature's beauty, two other men observe in awe as they witness this marvel in motion. Their expressions reflect both admiration for the cyclist's daring feat and curiosity about what lies ahead for these new-fangled velocipedes. This wood engraving transports us back to an era where bicycling was not just a means of transportation but also an exhilarating adventure filled with excitement and wonder. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come since then while honoring the pioneers who paved the way for our modern-day cycling culture. As we gaze upon this timeless piece from The Granger Collection, let it inspire us to embrace our own journeys with courage and determination, just like those intrepid riders did over a century ago.
