EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "On a street in Rome, a streetsweeper rests next to her cart" we are transported back in time to the bustling streets of early 20th century Rome. The image captures a moment of respite for a hardworking streetsweeper as she leans against her trusty cart, taking a well-deserved break from her laborious task. The scene is filled with intriguing details that provide us with glimpses into the fashion and lifestyle of that era. The woman's attire reflects the working class fashion of the time, showcasing sturdy clothing suitable for manual labor. Her worn-out shoes tell tales of countless miles walked on these very streets, while an accessory like a hat or headdress shields her face from both sun and dust. As we observe this snapshot in history, our eyes wander beyond the figure herself to take in the broader surroundings. We catch sight of other pedestrians going about their daily routines, creating an authentic street scene that breathes life into this photograph. Transportation plays its part too; carts and wheelbarrows line up along the road as essential tools for various tradespeople navigating through Rome's labyrinthine alleys. A bucket lies nearby alongside a broom - symbols of our protagonist's trade - reminding us that even amidst urban chaos, cleanliness remains paramount. This evocative image was captured by Brogi around 1900-1910 ca. , revealing his keen eye for detail and ability to freeze moments in time forever. Through his lens, we gain access to an intimate view of Rome during its transformative years at the turn of the century. Alinari has once again preserved history within their vast collection by presenting us with this remarkable piece – one that invites contemplation on work ethics, social dynamics, and timeless human stories etched onto every cobblestone corner throughout centuries past.
