Title
Clement Bordeaux-paris 1892
Artist
Vincent Monozlay
Medium
Painting - Poster Art
Description
Printer: Imp. Kossuth & Cie., Paris
Clement was one of the earliest French bicycle manufacturers, and the company always used posters designed by the best artists available to good advantage. The author of this image, however, remains unknown. In his explicit depiction, the artist favours the illustrative style prevalent in the early years of poster development, but the red and yellow letters presage a somewhat bolder approach. Much is made of recent bike race results; winning brands could count on marked sale increases after each triumph. In the foreground is Stephane, who knocked 58 minutes off the record of English cyclist Mills by riding the 572 kilometres (about 355 miles) from Bordeaux to Paris in 25 hours and 37 minutes. No one ever sweats in turn-of-the-century bicycle ads, and Stephane owes his relaxed state to his trusty Clement.
