P. H. LOBEL ROLAND. 1905. 47 1/2x31 inches. Camis, Paris. Condition B+: expert overpainting and restored losses in bottom margin, affecting image. Thanks to his bicycle, a herald in red, yellow and blue is blowing his horn as he safely speeds his way through a salvo of arrows; against a yellow, blue, green and red background, lettering in yellow. This image takes on an almost macabre poignance in light of the real-life events only 9 years after its printing wherein the French Army rode out of Paris on bicycles to meet the invading German army.
