"Fruit Sellers - B" is an etching by the British artist Augustus John, possibly dating back to 1906. The artwork depicts three figures - a woman in a wide-brimmed hat, a young girl, and a boy - set against a simple background, conveying a sense of realism and social commentary. John's signature style, evident in the expressive lines and the use of chiaroscuro, captures the essence of the figures and their everyday lives. The etching serves as a poignant representation of working-class life in early 20th-century Britain, highlighting the hardships and struggles faced by those living in poverty.
