Abandoned Bicycles in Beijing: An Echo of Forgotten Stories

I found myself in Beijing, China, where a poignant scene unfolded before my lens – old, abandoned bicycles leaning against a weathered wall, a quiet testament to the passage of time. The forgotten stories of these once-utilized modes of transportation now lay dormant, silent, and neglected.

The photograph's composition highlights the stark contrast between the bicycles' rusty frames and the wall's cracked, textured surface. It invites the viewer into a contemplative journey into the past – the history of the bikes, the individuals they once served, and the ever-evolving urban landscape that has left them in its wake.

These hand-signed prints are designed to bring these stories into your space. They are printed on acid-free 100% Archival Photo Paper with archival inks, ensuring precision, smooth transitions, deep blacks, intricate details, and vibrant hues that bring the image to life. I sign each print on the reverse side in pencil, adding a personal touch to each piece.

Every print comes with a certificate of authenticity and a lifetime warranty against fading, offering you peace of mind with your purchase. It's important to note that frames are not included in the purchase. The focus is on the image itself, a snapshot of a moment in time, a story waiting to be told in your home or office.
