EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the iconic "Poster for La Chaine Simpson" created by renowned French artist Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec in 1896. The poster itself is a testament to the fusion of art and innovation during the late 19th century. The focal point of this masterpiece features Constant Huret, a celebrated French cycling champion, proudly displaying the revolutionary Simpson Chain.

It serves as a reminder that even seemingly mundane objects like bicycle chains can have profound impacts on society. Ken Welsh's expertly captured print allows us to appreciate both the artistic brilliance behind Toulouse-Lautrec's creation and the historical significance it represents within the world of cycling. This image stands as a timeless tribute to human ingenuity, athleticism, and cultural exchange between France and England during this period - all encapsulated within one stunning piece of art.
