Vive Le Tour! - Cycling Art Print
Vive Le Tour traces the history of the Tour de France, joining the dots of the world’s greatest race from the current day to the pioneering early editions.
Specially commissioned for the cover of Soigneur magazine, the artwork features landmarks, sights and legends that have made the Tour. Details include the Casse Dèserte atop the Col d’Izoard, the Arc de Triomphe, and a bear lurking among the mists of the Pyrénées to catch the fearful pioneers of the earliest editions of the race.
Along the route it is watched over by WW1 pilot Marie Marvingt (the first in a long line of female riders to protest at the lack of a women’s Tour, and who rode the route alongside the men) as the road winds through the sunflowers and lavender fields of la belle France.
