Motocycles Comiot 1899

This 1899 poster by Théophile-Alexandre Steinlen, known for his Art Nouveau and Parisian street scenes, advertises the Comiot motorcycle. Depicting a stylishly dressed woman riding the motorcycle while a flock of geese scatter in her wake, the poster uses humor to highlight the speed and modernity of the vehicle. The vibrant colors and bold composition are characteristic of Steinlen's style, which often depicted the everyday life of Paris with wit and social commentary.
