A boy hands something across to a man standing outside a shop, and a bicycle leans nearby, which places the moment in the everyday commerce of a street where bicycles were a common sight. Bicycles spread widely in the late 1800s and early 1900s, when they became affordable transportation for working people and a common item for shops to sell, repair, and rent. Scenes like this one capture the informal exchanges that kept those businesses running, from deliveries and errands to small repairs. Look closely at the bicycle's frame and wheels, which show the design of the period and how much of daily life depended on simple human-powered machines.
