The composition showcases a diverse range of cyclists, both male and female, highlighting their determination and passion for this emerging sport. Bicycles line up in anticipation while crowds cheer on their favorite riders. The grandeur of the building behind them adds a touch of elegance to this sporting spectacle. This artwork not only captures a momentous occasion but also reflects French culture and its love affair with sports during that era.
