Starting A Bicycle Print Collection – Laying the Groundwork

Creating a collection of framed artworks – using your favourite bicycle prints – is really effective and can look SENSATIONAL!

Here are a few hints for putting together a bicycle print collection …

You Will Need To Decide On:

  • A theme or particular photographer/artist, that you really love.
  • What level of print quality and/or exclusivity you looking for.
  • Where the collection will hang – all together or scattered about your home?
  • How many prints you will include in your collection.
  • What size you want them to be.
  • Which frames will suit your house and the artistic style of your prints/posters?
    ie. – White walls look fabulous with framed black and white photographs – using a white matt and black frame.
  • Whether or not you need to see the physical cycling poster in-person before you buy – or if you happy enough to trust your instincts and buy sight unseen.

Once You Have Made These Decisions Then You Can:

  • Start doing your research.
  • Source your cycling posters/prints.
  • Begin to assemble your own unique bicycle print collection …
    Exciting hey!!

Specific Poster Collection Ideas

  • Vintage photographs capturing different people in different situations, times and places – with their bicycles. These are endlessly fascinating and great conversation pieces.
  • Your favourite athletes or professional races/events.
  • The evolution of the bicycle. (see our History of Bicycles page to get some ideas).
  • Bicycles made during a certain period ie. 1950’s bikes.
  • A particular artistic genre ie. Impressionist, Cubist etc.
  • Photos from around the globe in which bicycles are used in everyday life – for everyday purposes.
  • The choices are only limited by your imagination!
