Historical Illustration of Handwashing Clothes in a Wooden Tub #66277 (License: Personal Use)

This black-and-white line drawing depicts a 19th-century woman wearing a long dress and apron, leaning over a large oval wooden washtub placed on a rustic wooden stand. She is actively scrubbing fabric with her hands, with water and suds visible in the tub; a window in the background suggests a domestic interior setting. The detailed cross-hatching and period-accurate attire reflect historical domestic labor practices.
