Crates of eggs and lemons crowd the front of this market stall, the produce stacked close enough that the vendor's wares seem to spill onto the street. Markets like this were once the everyday center of local food supply, where farm families sold surplus directly to townspeople who bought by the basket rather than by the package. Stalls of this kind relied on simple wooden crates and open display, which made freshness visible and haggling part of the exchange. Scenes like this one are worth a closer look for the way they record how food changed hands before supermarkets took over.
