EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable moment in history, capturing the essence of the late 19th century. Titled "Lady in Rational cycling dress, 1897" this image was featured on the cover of The Sketch Cycling Supplement, published in London on November 24th, 1897. It commemorated the Stanley Cycling Club's impressive twenty-one years of existence. The lady depicted exudes elegance and confidence as she rides her vibrant red bicycle along a picturesque road. Her fashionable attire reflects the progressive spirit of the era - a rational cycling dress that allows for freedom of movement while maintaining an air of sophistication. She wears a stylish hat and gaiters to complete her ensemble. As she gracefully pedals forward, it is evident that cycling has become more than just a leisure activity; it represents empowerment and liberation for women during this time. The advertisement subtly reinforces this notion by featuring a female cyclist alongside a policeman on duty, challenging traditional gender roles. This stunning print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact, offering us glimpses into life in Britain at the turn of the century. It reminds us how transportation evolved with bicycles becoming popular means of travel for people from all walks of life. This photograph captures not only one woman's journey but also symbolizes progress and change sweeping through society during this transformative period.
