Thomas Shotter Boys

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a scene in Antwerp, Belgium. A tall stone pillar stands on the right side, topped with an ornate gold capital and a lamp. A white statue of the Virgin Mary holding a baby stands on top of the capital. The foreground shows a pile of several large wicker fish traps or baskets. Two men dressed in red coats and white hats stand on either side of the pillar. In the background, several buildings are visible, including a large white castle-like structure with a tall pointed roof on the left and a covered market area with a brown roof in the center.
