Posters/Paintings of Famous TdF locations?
#1351 - 02/16/04 04:31 PM (24.34.152.94)

Need some office art and don't want to have to answer those "So, is Lance your hero?" questions every time someone walks in just because most of the posters out there are of him. Frankly, also I prefer art to photography for my walls. I have seen a Ventoux poster but it was not great quality. What I'd really like is a poster that was made of a painting of some of the famous cycling spots, cyclists optional, so I know it's cycling related but to the casual observer it's just a pretty picture. Any thoughts - pointers?

I have looked at the poster sites on the Internet without much success.

For some reason, Graham Watson pictures don't strike me as art as much as journalism - I came asking here right after leaving his site and wondering if that was my best choice.

Thanks for bicycleposters.com - great site - I'll spend some time there.

I like this guy's stuff! Not all classics, but he has an eye for the sport - different resonance from Watson. Thanks for the tip.

I have purchased from Bicycle posters before. Good and easy to deal with.

Good luck with your project.
