EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print by Jan van der Bruggen, we are transported to a bustling night scene in a vibrant market. The artist skillfully captures the essence of trade and commerce as we witness a fishmonger engaging with his customers under a beautifully lit canopy. The lanterns cast an enchanting glow, illuminating the various types of fishes displayed on the merchant's stall. However, amidst all the activity, our attention is drawn to an unexpected sight - a man discreetly relieving himself near the booth. This cheeky act adds an element of surprise and humor to the composition. As if responding to this audacious behavior, a dog barks at him from behind. The presence of women engaged in trade further emphasizes that commerce knows no gender boundaries. They can be seen conversing with customers nearby, highlighting their active participation in this thriving marketplace. Jan van der Bruggen's meticulous attention to detail allows us to immerse ourselves fully into this lively nocturnal setting. From the intricate starfish sales display to each individual character depicted, every aspect contributes to creating an authentic atmosphere. This print serves as both a visual delight and historical documentation of daily life during Jan van der Bruggen's time period. Quint Lox has expertly curated this piece from Liszt Collection for enthusiasts who appreciate art that captures unique moments in history with finesse and intrigue.
