A little bit of Naples in 1890 ..... part 2

This is the second of those pictures of Naples at the close of the 19th century.*

In a city where people lived outside as much as inside their homes here are vivid pictures of life in a southern Italian city and compare with what Samuel Coulthurst was recording here in Manchester at roughly the same time.**
