Once upon a time, when houses didnt have plumbing systems, women washed laundry in open air basins. This one is even more curious since it was build in a carsic area where water is scarce. The source filling it is in the cave you can see in the background. Open air artwork, i got chilled to the bones to finish it. It was worth it though, since it won 2nd price at a local competition. Oil pastels on brown package paper. 30*40 cm.
