Zimmerman et sa Machine. 1894.
Lautrec’s friend Paul Leclerq has left us a vivid description of this little print, which appeared in June of 1895 as the illustration to a report by Tristan Bernard in La Revue Franco-Américaine: “The print shows the celebrated racing cyclist Arthur ‘The American Flyer’ Zimmerman [who had been in France since May of 1893] wearing his jersey, leaning on his bicycle. Through this lively image I can see Lautrec, armed with his litho chalk, bending over the stone, and I can still hear him eulogizing on the benefits of sports training, with the short, vivid and trenchant expressions which he used to such effect” (Paul Leclerq, Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Zurich 1958, p. 13).
