Cycles Griffon
1900
Imagine advertising a bicycle by putting a giant mythical monster on top of it! This 1900 poster for 'Cycles Griffon' does exactly that, featuring a fierce griffin—part eagle, part lion—perched over a serene forest scene. Below the beast, a fashionable woman in a white dress and hat pedals effortlessly, embodying the new freedom of the Art Nouveau era. The blazing yellow sunburst background makes the whole composition pop, selling the idea that riding a Griffon bike is a majestic, almost mythical experience.
