This engraving, captured by French artist Stefano Bianchetti in the 19th century, offers a glimpse into the daily life of Zouaves - soldiers of the French army during the Risorgimento de 1859. In this particular scene, we witness these brave men engaging in an unexpected yet essential task: doing their laundry. Amidst the chaos and intensity of war, these Zouaves take a moment to attend to their personal hygiene.
