Humber. ca. 1900.
A combination of sinewy curves, sharp angles, and contrasting red and green makes for a seductive design for Humber cycles. The company was founded in the 1870s and had high standards with an emphasis on quality; they became known as "the aristocrat among bicycles," a sentiment which is reflected in the stately gold-haired woman seen here.
