EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and experience the thrill of early motorized transportation as this photograph transports us to the Champs Elysees in Paris during the late 1890s. The iconic avenue, adorned with its grand trees and the Arc de Triomphe in the distance, sets the stage for this daring duo. An early motorcycle and sidecar, a pioneering mode of transport during the Fin de Siecle era, gracefully navigates the cobblestone street. The woman in the passenger seat, dressed in a fashionable hat and coat, exudes an air of excitement and enjoyment as she holds on tight. The rider, focused on the road ahead, skillfully maneuvers the vehicle, demonstrating the fun and freedom that came with the advent of motorized transportation. This photograph is a testament to the spirit of innovation and the allure of the open road during an era of great change and progress in France and beyond.
