caption: PROFESSIONS Florence, fight against Pignone: workers assigned to the canteen of the factory, with various cooking and service tasks, photographed in the courtyard next to the kitchens. When the owners decided to fire everyone and shut down the plant, work continued in self-management for a long period, from November '53 to January '54, to remove the specter of unemployment for 1,750 workers. The agitation garnered widespread solidarity, and the dispute ended with Eni's acquisition of the foundry decommissioned by Snia Viscosa. Photography by Ando Gilardi (1921-2012) #andogilardi, Florence 1953.
