‘Tour de Force’ Print by Lisa Takahashi

‘Tour de Force’ is of course a pun on ‘Tour de France’ – the annual multiple stage cycling race held primarily in France and thought to be one of the hardest sporting activities known, hence ‘Tour de Force’. Here you get a sense of the endeavour required to climb never ending hills, the last in line a mere dot in the background. You also see how each races as an individual yet also as a group, the entire climbing caterpillar like up the steep ascent of the mountain. An exceptional depiction.
