This print from the Liszt Collection showcases a mesmerizing scene titled "Landscape with women doing laundry". The image transports us to Italy in 1743, where we witness a timeless domestic chore being carried out amidst breathtaking natural beauty. In the foreground on the left, we see women diligently washing clothes and sheets. Their focused expressions reveal their dedication to this everyday task. As they scrub and rinse, water cascades down onto the ground, creating a serene visual element. Moving towards the background, our gaze is drawn to a clothesline adorned with freshly washed garments and linens. Against the backdrop of rolling hills and picturesque landscapes, these hanging fabrics create an enchanting sight. It's as if nature itself is participating in this daily ritual of cleanliness. The photograph also captures various man-made constructions and accessories related to laundering. From clothes-pegs holding up garments to drying frames supporting larger items, every detail adds depth and authenticity to this immersive experience. Davide Antonio Fossati is mentioned on the object itself, hinting at his involvement in capturing this remarkable moment through etching on paper. The dimensions of 250 mm in height by 365 mm in width ensure that every intricate aspect of this scene can be appreciated fully. This print not only offers us a glimpse into historical Italian life but also serves as a reminder of how even mundane tasks can become extraordinary when set against stunning landscapes.
