EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative pencil drawing captures the scene of a poultry and game seller plying his trade on the bustling streets of St. Petersburg, Russia during the 19th century. The itinerant trader, dressed in the typical attire of the time, is shown carrying a large basket filled with freshly plucked chickens and rabbits on his back. A pair of hares and a selection of game birds, including pheasants and ducks, are displayed on a wooden table before him. The man's serious expression and the determined set of his jaw suggest the hard work and dedication required to make a living as a travelling seller in this era. The busy street scene in the background adds to the sense of activity and energy, with people of all ages and social classes moving about their daily business. The use of pencil creates a delicate and intricate rendering of the textures and details of the scene, from the rough bark of the table to the feathers of the birds and the folds of the seller's clothing. The drawing also highlights the importance of food and meat in the diet of the Russian people during this time period. Poultry and game were valuable sources of protein, and the presence of a seller like this one would have been a familiar sight on the streets of St. Petersburg. Overall, this drawing offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the rhythm of life was set by the seasons and the daily hustle and bustle of the marketplace.
