The Poultry Vendor by Alexandro Loarte

The Poultry Vendor by Alexandro Loarte Travel photography Family-friendly: true

1626. Oil on canvas, 166 x 128 cm.

This is Loarte's most ambitious work among his still lifes. A depiction of a market stall in the Plaza de Zocodover in Toledo, it marks the end of a career cut short by the artist's early death. Brushwork, colour and lighting are used to create a composition of notable visual impact, of which another version of the same date is known.
