En Marschandiserbod i gamle Dage 1870 - 1883

This is a black and white ink drawing by W. Marstrand titled “En Marschandiserbod i gamle Dage” (A Peddler’s Stall in Days of Old) which depicts a street scene with a peddler’s stall in the center of the image, where three figures, likely customers, are looking at the wares on sale. The scene captures the atmosphere of a bustling marketplace in the 19th century. The drawing is a fine example of 19th-century Danish art. The drawing was created between 1870 and 1883 and is currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
