EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the vibrant scene of a bustling poultry and egg market in Gibraltar during the late 19th century. The artist, P Naumann, skillfully depicts the lively atmosphere with intricate details that bring this historical moment to life. In the foreground, we see men and women dressed in traditional costumes engaging in animated conversations as they go about their daily trade. A horse-drawn cart laden with baskets filled with eggs stands prominently at the center of the image, symbolizing the importance of these goods in this thriving marketplace. The buildings lining the street exude an old-world charm, showcasing architectural styles typical of Gibraltar during that era. The narrow lane is teeming with activity as people navigate through stalls brimming with fresh produce and various poultry offerings. Amidst all this commotion, a lady can be seen enjoying a cup of tea outside one of the establishments. Her presence adds a touch of elegance to an otherwise busy scene. P Naumann's engraving beautifully captures not only the essence but also provides us insight into how commerce thrived on these streets centuries ago. This remarkable piece serves as a window into history, reminding us of our connection to those who came before us and highlighting how markets have always been integral to our society's fabric.
