About the Item

Oil on Canvas. On the barrel in the lower left corner is the signature H.Sanders. The scene, set outdoors on a street in a Flemish town, with the canal in the background on the left, features a vegetable vendor in the foreground behind her stall, which is set up with a varied composition of winter vegetables, a still life composed of cauliflower, cabbage, carrots, and corn on the cob; beside the woman, a passerby carrying a harpoon on his shoulder is offering her fish, evidently the fruit of his catch that he wants to sell. The 'setting suggests Amsterdam, the city where the Dutch painter Hercules (or Herkules) Sanders was born and lived, who established himself primarily as a portrait painter, but whose indoor genre scene is known, currently at the Detroit Institute of Arts, dated 1647 and titled "Woman Cleaning Fish," whose female figure closely resembles the saleswoman in the work presented here. Restored and re-tinted, the painting is presented in a styled frame.
