Item Description
A striking mid-20th Century French wrought-iron weathervane depicting a racing cyclist in full motion, silhouetted against a long directional arrow above traditional cardinal points.
Beautifully graphic in execution, the figure captures the dynamism of road racing and reflects France’s enduring association with cycling culture and the great traditions of the Tour de France. Crafted in blackened iron with a strong folk-art sensibility, the vane retains a wonderfully sculptural quality and is presented on a bespoke display stand, allowing it to be enjoyed as an interior decorative object. The elegant silhouette and functional design combine to create a piece that is both evocative and highly decorative.
An unusual and characterful object, ideal for a collector of sporting memorabilia, folk art, or architectural antiques.
