EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Going To The Well" we are transported back in time to circa 1850, witnessing a young woman's daily routine as she embarks on her journey to collect water. The image beautifully captures the essence of domestic life in Europe during that era. The vibrant colors used in this portrait add a touch of modernity to the scene, breathing life into an otherwise distant past. As our eyes meet with the young woman, we can sense her determination and resilience as she carries a bucket towards the well. This simple act highlights the importance of water for everyday survival and reminds us of how different life was just over a century ago. The presence of a storage tank nearby hints at advancements made during that period, showcasing how society was gradually transitioning from traditional methods to more convenient solutions. However, it is through this photograph that we gain insight into the hardships faced by individuals like this young woman who still relied on manual labor for their basic needs. Rischgitz skillfully captures not only historical accuracy but also evokes emotions within us; gratitude for modern amenities and admiration for those who came before us. This print serves as both a visual reminder of our progress and an appreciation for simpler times when every drop of water held immense value.
