Le Cycliste (Meloni 31)
Gino Severini's "Le Cycliste" is a vibrant colored lithograph from 1956 that captures the dynamic movement of a cyclist through the artist's characteristic Futurist style, emphasizing speed and kinetic energy on the paper. This impressively scaled work, printed in an edition of 150 copies by the prestigious L'Oeuvre Gravée publisher in Zurich, demonstrates Severini's continued engagement with modernist printmaking techniques well into the post-war period. The print's substantial dimensions and presentation on fine BFK Rives paper with full margins underscore its significance as a major work within the artist's graphic oeuvre.
