The Chalet du Cycle - A Glimpse into the Leisurely Days of Parisian Cyclists
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us back to the enchanting world of early 20th-century Paris. Painted by Jean Béraud, a renowned French artist, "The Chalet du Cycle in the Bois de Boulogne" captures a serene scene in one of the city's most beloved parks. In this idyllic setting, we find ourselves on a charming terrace adorned with gas lights, where cyclists have gathered after an invigorating ride through the park. The air is filled with laughter and conversation as these fashionable men and women enjoy their well-deserved refreshments. Bicycles lean against tables while riders relax in wicker chairs, savoring drinks and soaking up the summer sun. Women donning bloomers—a bold fashion statement for their time—exude confidence as they join their male counterparts in embracing this liberating mode of transportation. The painting beautifully depicts both the joyous spirit of cycling and the vibrant atmosphere of Bois de Boulogne. It serves as a testament to how bicycles became not only practical means of travel but also symbols of freedom and leisure during this era. As we gaze upon this masterpiece from Musee Carnavalet's collection, we are reminded that even over a century later, cycling continues to be cherished worldwide for its ability to bring people together amidst nature's beauty.
