The Chestnut Seller

Auguste Brouet

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a black and white sketch of a street vendor's scene. A man wearing a hat and a coat with large buttons stands behind a table covered with various round objects, likely chestnuts. The table has a few baskets on it. To the left of the vendor, another person is leaning on the table, looking down. The background shows a dark area with some indistinct shapes that could be buildings or other objects. The overall atmosphere appears to be a nighttime scene. The artist's signature is visible in the bottom-right corner. The image is titled "The Chestnut Seller" and is attributed to Auguste Brouet.
