Description

This charming late 19th-century lithograph advertises Cycles Sirius bicycles, manufactured by P. Cusset in Levallois-Perret, France, depicting a mustachioed cyclist presenting his bicycle to two elegantly dressed women while a child looks on with curiosity. The warm, hand-rendered palette and fluid figures capture the optimistic spirit of the Belle Époque, when cycling was a fashionable new leisure pursuit for the bourgeoisie. On a wall, the poster reads as both a lively period scene and a sophisticated nod to the golden age of French graphic design.
