Zes markttaferelen 1814 - 1839

"Zes markttaferelen" (Six Market Scenes) is a series of six vignettes by Dutch artist Pieter Roosing. Created between 1814 and 1839, the work depicts daily life in a Dutch market, with scenes like a butcher selling meat, a woman selling fruit and vegetables, and a man selling a caged bird. The work, which is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, uses a simple, almost naive style and is a classic example of Dutch genre painting.
