Description

This vibrant French lithograph advertises Gouirand's bicycle manufacturer at 11 Rue Louis Blanc, Paris, depicting a winged figure of Mercury riding a bicycle at speed, draped in flowing red fabric against a stormy sky with the Eiffel Tower visible below. The poster captures the exhilarating spirit of the 1890s cycling craze that swept France and Europe, blending classical mythology with modern industrial pride. On a wall it reads as bold, energetic, and richly coloured — a conversation piece that celebrates both the golden age of cycling and French decorative printing.
