Square of the Barriera Vecchia

Historical photo of the Piazza della Barriera Vecchia in Trieste: open-air market among bare trees, improvised stalls and baskets of products. Women with shawls and long skirts and men in coats move among the stalls, next to a small wooden guard post. In the background, the buildings frame the scene, conveying the lively atmosphere of the neighborhood. An urban view that recounts the daily life and neighborhood commerce.
