The image doesn’t show the half-heart shape of the seat stays. The female model has her feet braced on foot pegs. The saddle is an extra long polo (banana)style covered with sheepskin. The wide deep sweep of the handlebar allows the bike to be ridden as pictured.

It’s more pleasurable riding it than holding that static staid pose. It handles predictably.

Built by Vancouver artist Jim Hoehnle, the bike has been enjoyed by hundreds of people and fully appreciated by a few discrete couples.
