About this work

This painting shows a small shop’s front with a wooden awning and a woman sweeping the sidewalk. The colors are soft and the light looks early morning. You can almost feel the quiet of an empty street. This is one of ten similar scenes the artist made. They weren’t famous works but they show everyday life in the 1800s. The brushstrokes are quick, like a snapshot. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more of these.
