Via del Molino a Vento

Via del Molino a Vento in Trieste appears as a long uphill street, with houses built close together on the right and open shutters. Along the sidewalks, women and children, small vendors and shops with goods on display can be seen: a scene of everyday life captured in a historical photograph. On the opposite side, low buildings and telegraph poles accompany the dusty path, still not asphalted. The image conveys the atmosphere of a popular neighborhood, amidst passers-by, voices and street activities.
