EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant coloured engraving captures the excitement and energy of a Bicycle Match at Lillie Bridge in 19th century England. The illustration, initialled C R, showcases the Victorian style with its meticulous hand-colouring. In this scene, men are seen leisurely cycling on their penny farthings, competing against each other in a thrilling race. Lillie Bridge in West Brompton serves as the backdrop for this sporting event, where cyclists from various European countries gather to showcase their skills and compete for victory. The atmosphere is electric as spectators cheer on their favorite teams and athletes. The image not only depicts the thrill of competition but also highlights the popularity of bicycles during that era. Bicycles were not just means of transportation but also sources of entertainment and leisure activities for both men and women. This print offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in sports history when bicycle races were highly anticipated events. It reminds us of how sports have always brought people together across cultures and nations. As we admire this enchanting engraving from Bridgeman Images' Bernard Platman Antiquarian Collection, we can't help but appreciate the artistry involved in capturing such dynamic scenes through illustrations like these.
