Bicycle at Rest, Florence by Robert Manz - Digital Download - 8x10 Print
Over the years I developed a great fondness for bicycle pictures, particularly those at rest, because they created all kinds of wonder. Geometrical arrangements against a wall. And mystery about who was the owner, where were they, when would they be back, where have they been, where were they going.
This is just about my first bicycle picture, if Florence, on a narrow street, in beautiful Tuscan light.

The digital downloads are an experiment. I know more and more people have good printers at home. This download is available for personal use at the stated size only. It has been protected against enlargement or alteration, but really this is a question of personal trust, as I seek to make a connection with people through my art. Thanks for considering and honoring. ~Robert
Printing Tips: I usually print on matte photo paper for inkjet, but gloss or satin should work well also; I just don’t have any experience with them. In order to get an idea of what would work best at home I recently purchased for about $200 an Epson EcoTank all in one printer, the ET 2800. I put in a sheet of my favorite archival matte paper, cost about 30 cents, and produced a print that is about 99% of the quality of the print I could make on the same paper using the photo quality Epson printers I have in the studio that cost about ten times as much. I’m happy to have those printers, I can do a lot more and make much bigger prints with them, but I do want you to know that if you use photo quality paper, you can make a framable print up to 11”x14” size with this download. ~ Robert
