EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A new genre of sport" we are transported back to the streets of Paris in the early 20th century. The image captures a group of Parisian actresses participating in an exciting race in Saint Cloud. This unique and thrilling sport involves racing on motor skates, adding a modern twist to traditional cycling. The atmosphere is electric as crowds gather along the course, cheering on their favorite competitors. Women take center stage in this groundbreaking event, showcasing their determination and skill on these two-wheeled vehicles. The winner's incredible feat of completing the one-kilometer race in just 8 minutes and 38 seconds solidifies their place as a true champion. This photograph not only highlights the growing popularity of sports among women but also reflects the spirit of modernity that was sweeping through society at that time. It symbolizes progress, breaking barriers, and embracing new forms of entertainment. Beltrame Achille's masterful illustration for Courier Sunday perfectly captures the excitement and energy surrounding this emerging craze. Through his artistry, he immortalizes a moment that represents both cultural shifts and female empowerment. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded of how sports can unite people across generations and cultures while pushing boundaries to create something truly extraordinary.
