Charles Nègre

National Gallery of Art

This is a photograph of a cobblestone street market with blurred architecture in the background. The image captures an outdoor market scene with various baskets and market goods spread out in the foreground. There is a small wooden structure in the image that resembles a stall or a kiosk. The background is dominated by tall buildings that appear to be of old European architectural style.
