Shoppers crowd a row of produce stalls, pausing to compare bunches of greens and baskets of root vegetables while vendors call out prices from behind their tables. The scene captures the everyday rhythm of urban food buying before supermarkets became the norm, when neighborhood markets were the main place city households bought fresh produce. Notice how much of the picture is taken up by the goods themselves, stacked high in crates and baskets, which reflects how central seasonal harvests were to the daily diet of working families.
