About the piece
Created in 1858 by American artist Thomas Waterman Wood, this work is a masterful example of genre painting. It depicts a market woman with remarkable warmth and dignity; her vibrant textiles and the carefully rendered produce in her basket provide a striking contrast against the atmospheric, dark background of the doorway.
