Telephone pole uprooted by the bora in 1895 in Piazza Caserma, today Piazza Oberdan

Historical photo taken in Trieste in Piazza Caserma, today Piazza Oberdan: two technicians on the roof are trying to secure a telephone pole bent by the bora in 1895. The wires and ceramic insulators intertwine on the inclined structure, while the tiles and chimneys define the urban landscape. An image that tells of the force of the wind on Trieste and the everyday life of technical work.
