This evocative photograph captures the image of an itinerant Russian broom seller, showcasing his extensive collection of cleaning supplies on a bustling street circa 1902. The seller, dressed in a simple cap and coat, exudes a sense of determination as he peddles his wares with a proud and confident air. His basket brimming with an array of brushes, brooms, pipe cleaners, and other cleaning paraphernalia of all shapes and sizes, reflects the versatility and adaptability of his business. The long-handled brooms and brushes, with their intricately carved handles, are displayed proudly, while smaller handbrushes and hairbrushes are neatly arranged, ready for a closer inspection. The seller's expression and posture suggest that he takes great pride in the quality and craftsmanship of his goods, which would have been essential items for the daily life of Russian households at the time. This historical photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a fascinating insight into the world of itinerant traders and the importance of the humble broom seller in Russian history.
