EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant scene of bustling activity, painted by the talented Victor Gabriel Gilbert. This print, now part of a private collection, takes us back in time to a lively market square in 19th-century France. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays various elements that bring this scene to life. In the foreground, we see pheasants hanging from a gutter drain and an umbrella shielding them from the sun. A hare rests nearby while a maid fetches water from an old-fashioned pump. A chef tends to a plump turkey, preparing it for sale or perhaps for an exquisite meal later on. In the background, vendors display their wares and customers eagerly peruse through baskets filled with fresh produce. Gilbert's use of color and light adds depth and vibrancy to this snapshot of everyday life at the market. Each character seems to have their own story - whether it be the diligent maid going about her duties or the chef meticulously selecting ingredients for his culinary masterpiece. This print not only showcases Gilbert's exceptional talent but also provides us with a glimpse into history; reminding us of simpler times when markets were buzzing hubs of trade and community interaction. It serves as both an artistic treasure and a nostalgic reminder of days gone by.
