In the image, a buyer of oysters can be seen tasting a sample of fresh seafood from one of the local vendors. The scene is filled with activity as boats come and go, transporting goods and passengers to and from this important hub of commerce.
The vibrant colors in this print bring to life the sights and sounds of this historical era. The buyer's expression as he savors the taste of the oyster reflects the importance placed on quality and freshness in seafood trading during that time.
