EDITORS COMMENTS
Ride a Stearns and be Content, c1896 (colour litho) by Edward Penfield captures the spirit of freedom and joy that comes with cycling in the late 19th century. This vibrant advertisement poster showcases a confident woman riding a 'Yellow Fellow' bicycle, manufactured by EC Stearns & Company. Edward Penfield, known for his iconic illustrations, beautifully depicts the exhilaration of cycling through his use of bold colors and dynamic lines. The woman's flowing dress and wind-blown hair add to the sense of movement and adventure. The image not only promotes the Stearns brand but also reflects the changing role of women in society during this period. It portrays a female cyclist as independent, self-assured, and enjoying her newfound mobility. This historic lithograph is part of the Historica Graphica Collection, which preserves significant works from various art movements.

Whether you are an avid cyclist or simply appreciate vintage artwork, this print serves as a reminder that riding a bicycle can bring contentment and liberation. Let it inspire you to embrace your own journey towards happiness.
