Delivery Lorry Twenties Alfieri Ice Cream Nineteen Twenties
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, captured by Alfieri in 1922, showcases the fascinating process of making ice bricks at Cady Hall. The image depicts workers diligently crafting these frozen blocks before dispatching them to various depots using special containers. In this snapshot from the early twentieth century, we catch a glimpse of Europe's ice cream industry between the wars. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia as it transports us back to the roaring twenties. It serves as a reminder of how far technology has come since then. The scene is bustling with activity as men load up a lorry with meticulously stacked ice canisters and ice cream containers. These carefully packed deliveries were essential for preserving perishable goods during transportation. Alfieri's lens captures not only the physical labor involved but also highlights the importance placed on quality and efficiency in this era. This print offers us an insight into a bygone time when such processes were carried out manually rather than relying on modern machinery. As we admire this historical moment frozen in time, let us appreciate both the craftsmanship behind creating these ice bricks and their vital role in delivering fresh produce across distances.
