Sketches at Gibraltar, 1876. Creator: Unknown

Sketches at Gibraltar, 1876. Engraving from a sketch by...a valued correspondent and amateur artist, Major W. O. Carlile, R.A...Eggs; Chickens; Milkman; Water Carriers; Spanish Caleche; Spanish Women returning from Market; Jews and Jewesses; Dustman...The popular sellers of nuts, gingerbread, and sweetmeats are seen here walking about or crouching in a cool corner...The sale of eggs, of milk, and of poultry, is of course an important local traffic; the milk is that of goats, belonging to Maltese, who lead those animals to the consumer's house door, just as they do at Valetta; the cheapest eggs and chickens are brought over from the African shore. The water supply of the town and barracks is pumped up by steam-engines and machinery erected on the neutral ground, as the Rock admits but few wells, and the rainfall does not fill the cisterns enough'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876
