This painting shows an old man and a girl at a vegetable and fish shop. Immense effort has been lavished on rendering the textures of the different goods on display: dried herrings, gingerbread, walnuts on the ledge; mushroom and dried fish suspended on either side of the arch; gold clubs and apples in front of the ledge; with additional fruits and gingerbread figures within the shop itself. The painting of different types of baskets, metal containers and fabrics is a virtuoso display of pictorial skills.
