The Oriental Merchant

Thomas Wyck

National Gallery of Art

The image is viewed from a perspective slightly below the occupants in the scene. A stone building is on the left, with a heavily textured facade. The horizon line is low, and an arched bridge is on the right. Figures are engaging with goods and barrels. The color palette is sepia and black.
