A jovial woman dressed in 19th-century garb rides a sleek black bike.

Original vintage print from the C. Burckardt company. Buckhardt’s studio was located in Weissenburg, in the Alsace region of France, along the French border with Germany. Burckardt created these imaginative lithographs between the late 1800s to the early 1900s, and they quickly became known as the “new media” of the 1900s. Among the whimsical prints, caricatures of politicians, fairy tale characters, and personified animals are often featured. The prints would be used as education charts, festival hall decorations, puzzles, puppets, and various other uses. Most of the prints were created through the process of stone lithography, where the men would print the black outlines, and the women would paint in the colors by hand. All posters are exemplary of the stunning Art Nouveau style.
