This is a collection of scenes that have become rare in Europe since water is conducted to most houses and electricity powers machines that wash clothes, but in many parts of the world there are still riverbanks, lakesides and wash-houses where old-style methods of laundering are used. Beating and slapping wet cloth against stones is seen (and heard) in most of Asia and Africa even today.
