EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "The 'Salvo' tricycle" takes us back to the early days of cycling in the 19th century. The image showcases a remarkable invention that revolutionized transportation during its time. The tricycle featured in this print was a marvel of engineering, representing an important milestone in the evolution of bicycles. With its two wheels at the front and one at the back, it offered stability and ease of use for riders. This innovative design allowed both men and women to enjoy the thrill of cycling, as depicted by the female cyclist gracefully riding through a scenic landscape. As we delve into this historical artwork, we are reminded of how far transportation has come since then. The engraver's attention to detail beautifully captures not only the intricate mechanics but also highlights its significance within natural history and science. This illustration originally appeared in Travel magazine, edited by H. S Lunn, providing readers with an insight into new modes of transport that were shaping society at that time. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our constant pursuit for progress.
