I have taken shots of Amish clothes hanging out on wash day before but the way these were hung like a color wheel really caught me eye. Not sure if there is a logical reason to hang them like this but I thought it looked great.
Maybe the lady of the house was trying to turn a boring, mundane task into something more creative. It’s also interesting how she has chosen to sew each dress in a different color – an artist at heart? Also, she might have anticipated that people passing by would appreciate the colorful artistry of the clothesline hanging – as you did. Or maybe it just makes it easier for when she has to hang them in the closets. Maybe each color belongs to a different family member.
Fun to try to figure it out!
Love your photos. Thank you for them.
