EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from the Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, showcasing a Victorian-era cycling club in full swing. The photograph, taken during the early Edwardian period, transports us to a bygone era of innovation and adventure. At the heart of the scene is the Penny Farthing, an iconic symbol of the cycling revolution that swept through the late 19th century. This unique bicycle design, with its large front wheel and small rear wheel, was a marvel of engineering and represented the pinnacle of cycling technology at the time. The cyclists in the photograph, all dressed in their club attire, exude a sense of camaraderie and excitement. Their determined expressions and focused body language suggest that they are about to embark on a challenging ride, perhaps a race or a long-distance tour. The group dynamic adds an element of competition and team spirit to the scene. The setting of the photograph further emphasizes the Victorian era, with its lush greenery, elegant trees, and picturesque landscape. The absence of modern distractions, such as cars or mobile phones, highlights the simplicity and purity of the cycling experience during this period. This photograph not only captures the essence of a bygone era but also serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of cycling as a sport and a means of transportation. It invites us to reflect on the history of cycling and the role it has played in shaping our modern world.
