    38e CRITÉRIUM DU DAUPHINÉ LIBÉRÉ – 1986 (Greg Lemond & Bernard Hinault)
    Artist: Anonymous
    Date: 1986

    Original poster for the 38th Critérium du Dauphiné Libéré, printed in France in 1986 by Société Presse, Veurey-Voroize. The Dauphiné Libéré, founded in 1947 by the newspaper Le Dauphiné Libéré, takes place annually in the French Alps and is recognized as the principal preparatory race for the Tour de France.

    The 1986 edition was won by Urs Zimmermann, with Greg LeMond and Bernard Hinault among the competitors. Both riders represented the La Vie Claire team and were using the race to prepare for the Tour de France. The event is remembered as part of the buildup to LeMond’s historic Tour de France victory later that summer, when he became the first American to win the Tour, with Hinault finishing second.

    This is an authentic original offset lithograph from 1986, professionally mounted on linen and preserved in excellent condition. It represents an important year in professional cycling, connecting the Dauphiné to one of the most significant Tours in modern history.
