Stacked containers of fish form the subject here, and beyond the title and its place among the market views, the record offers few details. Scenes like this were common at waterfront and town markets from the late nineteenth into the early twentieth century, when catch came in by boat or cart and was sold soon after landing. Wooden crates and barrels were the standard way to move and display fish before refrigeration made longer storage routine. The way the containers are piled shows how a market day was organized, so it is worth looking closely at the arrangement.
