A smiling vegetable vendor holds up a stalk of celery in this scene, with crates of apples stacked close by, so the produce itself sits at the center of the composition. Market photographs of this kind were common in the early twentieth century, when farm goods were sold directly from wagons, stalls and open-air stands in towns and cities. The celery and apples point to a seasonal exchange between local growers and the shoppers who bought from them. Notice how the vendor's expression and the fresh produce together give a sense of the everyday trade that kept these markets running.
