Workers

I think the man on the right side is a chimney-sweeper. He is barefooted because working on a slippery roof was safer without shoes.

I have no clue about the three men with white work coats and I cannot identify what they are carrying on their shoulders. Could it be that they are stove fitters? I think there must be a relationship to the chimney sweeper.

(No time or place given. I suppose 1880s)
