La darrera nau de Borrell / Last factory in the street

IN ENGLISH BELOW THE LINE

 

Foto presa amb una Arsenal Salyut-S, fabricada a la URSS el 1974; objectiu Vega 12B f2.8/80mm; Fomapan 100 revelat "stand" en Rodinal durant 45 minuts.

 

Aquesta és la darrera nau que quedava al molt treballador carrer Borrell de Sabadell. Els meus avis hi varen viure, en aquest carrer abans ple de telers. I ara aquesta nau, de bonica façana, també va a terra. Tristor.

Picture taken with an Arsenal Salyut-S camera, made in the USSR in 1974; Vega 12B f2.8 / 80mm lens; Fomapan 100 stand developed in Rodinal for 45 minutes.

 

This was the last factory standing in the very industrial street where my grandparents lived for most of their lives, in Sabadell (with was once known as the Catalan Manchester). A street that I still remember full of the loom sounds. Now this last factory, with it's graceful ondulating roof, it's going down. It's sad.
