L'erotica is a cycling event which began in italy and has made its way over to britain in the form of erotica Britannia, it is the celebration of vintage bicycles and takes people back to the 'golden era' of cycling. Its very relevant to my current poster event which is celebrating the bicycle in all its simplicity and the people who ride daily not just race. Looking at the posters they seem to take influences from much older cycling posters such as fig one which use illustration along side bright colours. I can appreciate this approach however I am not an illustrator nor am i very good at illustrating, so i will actually avoid using illustrations but will take inspiration from the colour and sheer patriotism you get from the posters.
