Woman Selling Vegetables is a 1700 oil by Hendrick Mommers, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
This painting shows a woman in a blue dress selling vegetables to another woman. The seller is holding a basket, and the buyer is reaching into it. There's a goat next to them and a donkey with baskets on its back. In the background, there's a tall stone wall with a tower and trees on top. The sky is cloudy. The painting has a lot of detail, especially in the clothing and the vegetables. You can see the texture of the baskets and the fur of the goat. The colors are muted, with lots of browns and greens.
