EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Washerwomen, El Paso, Texas, c1897" takes us back to the late 19th century in America. The creator of this powerful image remains unknown but its historical significance is undeniable. From the book "A Tour Through the New World America" by Professor Geo. R. Cromwell, we catch a glimpse into daily life during that era. The scene depicts three washerwomen diligently working on their chores along the riverbank in El Paso, Texas. Despite their hardships and the demanding nature of their occupation, these strong women exude resilience and determination as they sit beside barrels filled with water for washing clothes. In this monochrome portrait, we see a young boy observing them from a distance - perhaps curious about their profession or simply captivated by their unwavering dedication to work amidst nature's beauty. This image not only captures a specific moment in time but also reflects broader themes such as domestic labor, gender roles, and socio-economic conditions prevalent in the American South during that period. As we admire this historic photograph preserved by CN Greig & Co. , London, it serves as a reminder of our collective past and pays homage to those who shaped our present reality through their hard work and perseverance.
