Description
Washing Lines of Naples. 2026.
What can you say? Naples. Its nuts. No green space, medieval streets tucking you in. Disregard for all normal road norms, traffic lights may as well not even exsist. But life goes on, and needs must. One of those needs is laundry drying. It is EVERYWHERE. Feels like almost every balcony is swathed in some fresh goodies, how clean they are afterwards, I cant comment. But there is a real vulnerabilty to seeing someone's delicates swaying in the breeze above your head as you walk around these ancient paths. Its not for the faint-hearted this place; there's a suffocating nature to it, but it is magic. The softness and normalness of someone's laundry on display couldnt be further from the stone buildings that surround you constantly.

The luminous colours of my photos pop best with an archival giclee print on durable archival paper which I've hand picked out of many samples.

Alongside all signed prints, you'll get a certificate of authenticity too. If you order framed this will be on the back of the frame.

Samuels art makes our house feel alive and vibrant. I am forever finding new details within each image. Samuel was extremely helpful when helping us find the perfect images for our home. He was always extremely friendly and personable as well as highly professional.
Rickie Haywood-Williams, BBC Radio 1
His work is so unique and arresting. He is somehow able to capture the 'ordinary' in a way that makes it feel truly extraordinary. I'm so excited to see his work in our home.
Lisa Bowcot, Interior Designer
Could we ever need more insight than we do now about how to dry our hands in washrooms while touching almost nothing? Samuel Ryde, a British photographer, pays homage to air blowers
