  1. I like seeing laundry hanging out on a line. Reminds me of a trip to Italy and several of the other people from our cruise ship were disgusted by the sight of laundry strung out across the street. I thought it was charming.

    1. I do not find it especially charming. But... disgusting? How clean clothes can be disgusting?

  2. What a clever take on "streetwear!" Ordinary clothing, and on the street. I think that image is best not in color. Something about mono makes even laundry on the line charming! Takes me back to my childhood when my mother had a clothesline. Years later it was only for sheets, and I miss those crisp line-dried sheets.

    1. We have clotheslines... But not in the street!
      I also think this postcard is better in black and white.

  3. How clever! Just street clothes, not on people 😜

  4. Must admit I like to see a colourful washing line blowing in the wind.
