Artists recognized the bicycle as a symbol of progress and societal change, depicting it in various ways. Paintings like Federico Zandomeneghi's "Meeting on a Bicycle" and Choquet Christian's "Tour de France année 2003" captured the joy, freedom, and excitement associated with cycling.
Indian artists on Mojarto have also embraced bicycle as a subject that transcends mere representation. Through their paintings and illustrations, they celebrate the advent of this revolutionary invention and the impact it had on society.
