A CDV-sized tintype featuring a young boy standing next to a high-wheeled bicycle equipped with pedals. The bicycle, an early example of the velocipede or "boneshaker," showcases the transitional design that predated the penny-farthing era. The boy is elegantly dressed in period attire, including a tailored jacket, knee-length trousers, and a cap, adding charm and historical context to the image. The photograph highlights the craftsmanship of the high-wheeled bicycle with its spoked wheels, early pedal design, and streamlined handlebars. The studio backdrop, with its artistic painted scenery, enhances the composition's vintage aesthetic.
