This is a genre portrait of a beautiful Italian young lady that has just come from the shore where she has caught some fish and a lobster which she has placed in a wicker basket, that she is going to sell at the market.
She is standing by a red brick wall that has mortar covering most of it near a double wall, that seems to be part of a building.
She is wearing gold orb earrings, a white short sleeve blouse, over which she is wearing a red corset and a yellow-gold colored full length dress, blue stockings and black shoes with brass buckles.
She is holding part of her skirt with her right hand; while holding the basket of seafood against her hip with her extended left hand as she looks into the distance from her left.
