EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to old Sanremo, capturing a poignant scene at the public washhouse. Taken around 1900 by the talented photographer Brogi Giacomo from Stabilimento fotografico Alinari, this image offers a glimpse into the lives of lower-class women who dedicated their days to laborious domestic work. The architectural elements of the washhouse are beautifully showcased, with its grand arches and intricate decorations standing as testaments to an era long gone. The roof of the building adds character and charm to the overall structure, reminding us of a simpler time when communal spaces like these played vital roles in everyday life. In this bustling scene, we see hardworking laundresses diligently tending to their tasks. Dressed in traditional clothing that reflects both civilian and military influences, these women wear kerchiefs and headdresses that add a touch of elegance amidst their arduous duties. Each woman carries her own basket filled with laundry while carefully balancing basins on her hip—a testament to their strength and resourcefulness. This photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of the dedication and resilience displayed by lower-class women during this period. Their commitment to their work is evident even through black-and-white imagery. As we admire this historical snapshot, let us reflect on how far society has come since then—how advancements have transformed our daily routines—and appreciate those who came before us for laying down foundations upon which we stand today.
