Description
This exuberant French poster advertises Cycles Capelle of Dijon, makers of motocyclettes and pneumatic tires. A laurel-crowned winged woman rises from the factory skyline carrying a bicycle aloft, her golden sash streaming behind her, while motorcyclists speed along the road below. Printed in blazing oranges and reds, it is a joyful example of early French vehicle advertising art.
