EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back to the late 19th century, capturing a slice of everyday life in the picturesque town of Dolceacqua. The image showcases a group of washerwomen diligently going about their work near the serene stream of Bervio. The women, dressed in traditional clothing that reflects the fashion trends of that era, stand gracefully on the riverbanks as they engage in their vocation. Their presence adds an element of human activity against the backdrop of stunning natural beauty. The stone bridge spanning across the stream adds architectural charm to this idyllic scene. One can't help but be drawn into this snapshot from history, imagining what it must have been like for these hardworking individuals who relied on streams and rivers for transportation and livelihood. It is a reminder of simpler times when laundry was washed by hand with care and precision. The photographer Brogi has skillfully captured both the landscape and its inhabitants, showcasing his talent for documenting scenes that evoke emotion and curiosity. This particular photograph exemplifies his ability to freeze moments in time while preserving intricate details. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported not only to Dolceacqua but also to an era long gone. It serves as a testament to our shared human experience throughout time – no matter how much society may change or progress, certain aspects such as work and daily routines remain constant. This print by Brogi is not just an object; it is a gateway into another world – one filled with nostalgia, simplicity, and timeless beauty.
