Set against a striped awning, a figure in a rabbit costume stands behind a stall stacked with decorated Easter eggs, the rabbit's long ears and bright outfit making it the clear focal point. Easter rabbits and painted eggs have been linked in European spring customs for centuries, and the tradition carried into American towns and city streets, where costumed sellers and parade figures helped turn the holiday into a public spectacle. Notice how the stripes and bunting frame the stall, a common device in early street and fair photography to draw the eye toward the merchandise.
