Stadsgezicht met fruitmarkt in Gent c. 1912

Jules de Bruycker's etching "Stadsgezicht met fruitmarkt in Gent," (c. 1912) depicts a bustling fruit market in the Belgian city of Ghent. The artist masterfully uses line and shading to create a sense of depth and movement, capturing the energy of the scene. The viewer is drawn to the foreground where vendors are selling their wares, while the buildings in the background provide a sense of context and scale. This realistic portrayal of everyday life in Ghent exemplifies de Bruycker's talent for capturing the essence of urban scenes.
