"Galen -laloue Fish Market Le Tréport"
Gouache on paper signed lower left Lievin, one of the many pseudonyms borrowed by the artist. This gouache depicts a bustling fish market in the town of Le Tréport in Normandy. The fishermen have returned to port, the sails are lowered, the fish market can begin, the weather is mild, the sky is blue. The large crowd throngs the stalls. This fish market scene is unusual! Galien-Laloue is best known for these representations of Parisian life and its many markets.
