Through Suffering to Cycledom - A Journey of Triumph and Laughter
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this engraving titled "Through Suffering to Cycledom" artist S. T. Dadd takes us back in time to the 19th century, where cycling was a new and exciting sport. The image depicts a scene filled with both humor and determination. The print captures a night-time setting on a peaceful lawn, illuminated by the moonlight. In the foreground, we see an heir donning his uniform, ready to embark on his cycling adventure. His wife looks on with amusement as he struggles with his bicycle, still learning the art of pedaling. Surrounding them are various characters who have also been compelled by the allure of cycling. A housemaid unloads wooden crates filled with bicycles while a doctor settles into his own machine nearby. Even goldfish seem enchanted by this new mode of transport! The image suggests that mastering cycling is not without its share of accidents and mishaps. Yet, through laughter and perseverance, these cyclists find their way towards mastery. Dadd's engraving beautifully captures the spirit of this emerging sport - from the excitement felt by beginners attempting their first ride to experienced cyclists confidently navigating unfrequented roads. "Through Suffering to Cycledom" serves as a reminder that even in life's trials and tribulations, there is joy to be found along the journey towards our goals - just like these determined individuals finding solace in their pursuit of cycledom.
