The people are dressed in old-fashioned clothing and are engaged in different activities, such as selling and buying vegetables. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich and vibrant texture. The use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.
