About the piece

Painted in 1875 by Marie-François Firmin-Girard, this detailed work offers a glimpse into the everyday life of 19th-century Paris. The composition centers on a local butcher's shop, with its textured stone facade and characteristic display of wares. In the foreground, a black and a white dog meet on the cobblestones, adding a narrative charm to the weathered architectural setting.
