EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait takes us back in time to the year 1865, where Mr. Ws Tree proudly poses with his remarkable penny farthing bicycle. The image, captured by the talented photographer Otto Herschan, transports us to an era when road transport was still a novelty and bicycles were a symbol of freedom and adventure. In this mesmerizing print, we see Mr. Tree standing tall next to his towering penny farthing cycle, its large front wheel dwarfing him in comparison. His confident stance exudes a sense of pride as he showcases this innovative mode of transportation that was popular during the Victorian era. The monochromatic tones add depth and nostalgia to the photograph, emphasizing every intricate detail of both man and machine. The fine art quality of this print allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in capturing such a momentous piece of history. As we gaze at this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but imagine what it must have been like for Mr. Tree riding through those cobblestone streets on his penny farthing bicycle - wind blowing through his hair as he embarked on new adventures. This print is not just an exquisite piece for collectors or enthusiasts; it's also a window into our past, reminding us of how far we've come in terms of transportation technology while celebrating the timeless allure and elegance embodied by these vintage bicycles.
