About this work

This drawing shows a woman in a shop, weighing something on a scale while an older woman and a child watch. Shelves in the background hold jars and baskets. The table is piled with woven baskets, bags of goods, and small wooden figures. Light comes through a window on the right. The shop looks like a mix of a market stall and a home. The way the artist drew the textures—like the rough wood and smooth fabric—stands out. Next, look up cross-hatching to see how artists build shadows with lines.
