EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, where bicycles were not only a means of transportation but also a symbol of wealth and elegance. Illustrated by the talented George du Maurier, this engraving depicts passengers riding in bicycle carriages. Intriguingly, these unique contraptions combine the charm of horse-drawn carriages with the novelty of cycling. The image showcases women dressed in Victorian-era attire, gracefully seated inside these luxurious bicycle carriages as they traverse through bustling streets. Du Maurier's attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pen. From the intricate engravings on the carriage wheels to the delicate features of each passenger, he captures both movement and stillness within this snapshot from history. The scene transports us to a time when London was at its peak as an industrial hub, where innovation met tradition. These bicycle carriages epitomize progress while maintaining an air of sophistication that was characteristic of Victorian society. As we admire this enchanting illustration today, it serves as a reminder that even in our fast-paced world, there is beauty in embracing new technologies without losing touch with our past.
