Description

A young woman in a cloche hat and long coat stands at a wooden table on the left, holding and looking closely at a small pottery vessel. Tables to her left are crowded with small vessels and bowls. On the right, long shelves run toward a dark arched doorway, holding large jars, bowls and juglets, several with paper tags attached. Floor tiles and plain stone walls complete the room.
