EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Woman Selling Herrings" we are transported back in time to witness a scene of bustling trade and commerce. The herring saleswoman, a young woman with determination etched on her face, stands before us in half-length. In her left hand, she proudly holds up a plump herring, showcasing the quality of her merchandise. With a wooden bucket resting at her side, she exudes the essence of an experienced merchant. Her expertise lies in selling these bony fishes that have been caught fresh from the sea. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost smell the salty aroma wafting through the air. This artwork by Godfried Schalcken captures not only the beauty of this young woman but also sheds light on women's involvement in trade during this era. It serves as a reminder that women have long played significant roles in various industries throughout history. The delicate brushstrokes and vibrant colors used by Schalcken bring life to this panel painting created between 1675 and 1680. Measuring just 19 cm in height and 15.5 cm in width, it is remarkable how such a small piece can convey so much detail and emotion. As we admire "Woman Selling Herrings" let us appreciate both its artistic value and its historical significance as it immortalizes an ordinary moment turned extraordinary through artistry and skillful storytelling.
