EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "L Hygiene En Allemagne" captures a fascinating glimpse into early 20th-century Germany. Taken by an anonymous European photographer in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The image showcases a scene from daily life in Berlin, depicting dustmen sorting through old papers and rubbish for recycling purposes. This practice highlights the German commitment to hygiene and cleanliness even before the outbreak of World War I. The photo was originally used as an illustration for Jules Huret's book "L Allemagne Moderne" published by Pierre Lafitte in 1913. The composition exudes historical charm, transporting viewers back to a time when Berlin was still developing as a modern city. It offers valuable insights into German culture and society during that era, showcasing their meticulous attention to cleanliness and environmental consciousness. As we gaze at this snapshot from the past, it reminds us of how far we have come in terms of waste management practices. Moreover, it serves as a testament to the resilience and adaptability of German citizens throughout history. With its rich historical context and artistic value, this photograph provides us with an opportunity to reflect on our own attitudes towards hygiene and sustainability today.
