The bustling street setting adds to the atmosphere, transporting viewers back in time to witness this age-old practice. The boy's eager expression as he hands over the broken chair speaks volumes about his trust in the skilled hands of the chairmender. It is heartwarming to see how even everyday objects like chairs were valued and repaired rather than discarded.
