In this black and white portrait, we are transported back to the Victorian era, where Captain W Horton Hutchins of Cardiff Bicycle Club proudly poses with his penny farthing bicycle. This iconic mode of transportation was immensely popular during that time and perfectly encapsulates the spirit of adventure and innovation. Captain Hutchins stands tall in his dapper attire, exuding an air of confidence as he rests one hand on the handlebars. His penny farthing bicycle looms behind him, its large front wheel a testament to both elegance and engineering prowess. The intricate details on the frame showcase the craftsmanship that went into creating these magnificent machines. The photograph's monochromatic palette adds a timeless quality to the image, emphasizing its historical significance. Otto Herschan skillfully captures every nuance, allowing us to appreciate not only the subject but also the artistry involved in preserving this moment from over a century ago.
