EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historic print captures the innovative Pedestrian Curricle, a revolutionary invention patented by Dennis Johnson in 1819. The colour litho reproduction, created by Maurice Rousseau in the 19th century, showcases this early form of transportation that would pave the way for modern cycling. The image depicts two cyclists gracefully riding their velocipedes through a scenic landscape. The Pedestrian Curricle was an ingenious contraption consisting of two wheels connected to a frame with handlebars for steering. It allowed riders to propel themselves forward using their feet on the ground, similar to walking or running. During this time period, cycling was not only seen as a means of transportation but also as a popular sport and leisure activity. This particular photograph highlights the elegance and gracefulness associated with cycling during that era. The Pedestrian Curricle became known as "gentleman's hobby horse" due to its popularity among upper-class individuals who enjoyed indulging in sporting activities. However, it is important to note that both men and women participated in this new trend. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come since those early days of cycling. It showcases the rich history behind this beloved sport while also celebrating the inventiveness and passion that drove its evolution over time.
