FRANCISCO TAMAGNO (1851-1933)


TERROT & CIE. DIJON / BICYCLETTES DE TOURISME. Circa 1900.


54 1/4x35 inches, 137 3/4x89 cm. La Lithographie Parisienne, Paris.
Condition B+ / B: expertly-repaired horizontal tears through text and image; repaired tears, replaced losses, creases and restoration in margins and image.

A charming departure for Tamagno, whose posters for Terrot most frequently show a female rider kissing-off those who are following her on lesser, slower forms of transportation. Here, at the end of day trip, a couple has dismounted from their bicycles in order to enjoy a glorious sunset over Mont St. Michel. Rare.
