The scene depicts a seated Quito woman dressed in traditional attire, showcasing the rich cultural heritage of Ecuador's capital city. The woman is adorned in a full blue skirt and a white blouse, reflecting the local fashion of that era. With her warm smile and welcoming posture, she exudes an air of confidence as she sells an array of fresh fruits to passersby. Amongst her offerings are pineapples - their golden hues adding pops of color to the composition. Salas' meticulous attention to detail brings this bustling market scene to life.
