In the distance, a church with a cross-topped dome and tall, leafy trees stand out against the sky. The artwork features a monochromatic palette with stark black and white contrasts created through textured line work. Several shadowy figures are shown in close-up, including a man on horseback and others carrying goods. They are depicted with bold silhouettes against a backdrop of market stalls filled with various items. The image captures the dynamic activity of the market and plays with light and shadow.
