Paris-soir: Vintage Bicycle Poster

Courage. Determination. Endurance. Heroes.

All words which are used over and over again to describe the sporting achievements of athletes in every field, from all over the world and adjectives which have had an extensive work out recently at the Olympic Games.

A vintage poster like this one as wall art in your home gives your decorating a new depth

Not being a sports person myself, I have trouble understanding what it is which makes someone think that riding a bike around and around a hot and humid city, is a good idea and I think most non-sports people think the same thing.

However, I then try to compare it to things I do in my own life – goals I set for myself, ideas I have, work I want to complete – and you soon realise that everyone has their own individual motivators and their own ways to achieve their goals, thankfully mine involve a lot less perspiration.

So even if you are not a bicycle racer or an athlete of any kind inspirational wall art like this vintage bicycle poster is sure to have a home in your home. While the artist hasn’t revealed the faces of the riders in this print, and all three riders look almost identical, you can see, feel and share their determination and energy as they rode towards their goal. There are no distractions from the sidelines, the art print is simply bordered by simple and stark trees and the focus in on the riders and their personal journey which is so different yet inherently similar to your own.

Displaying a vintage poster like this one as wall art in your home gives your decorating a new depth, not only as motivational piece of art, but also because you have transformed something which was never supposed to be displayed again, into a unique, long lasting wall art display.
