Bali’s First Cyclist: A Quiet Milestone
Ancient India: By knowing the past we can project ourselves into the future. What do you think about this?
In a 2000-year-old temple in Tamil Nadu, we see a cyclist engraved on the walls. It is said that there is no such thing as perfection, so there is room for improvement. But a cycle surpasses that. Some things never change, they are not supposed to change, perfection does exist.
Did you know that the first person to ride a bicycle in Bali was the Dutch artist WOJ Nieuwenkamp? Around 1900, he travelled around the island of Bali by bicycle, painting landscapes and portraits. Nieuwenkamp, nicknamed “the Wanderer”, is depicted on a relief at the Pura Meduwe Karang temple near Singaraja.
