This watercolor depicts a young woman carrying a basket full of fish in each hand. She is wearing a long dress with an apron. She wears a scarf and a white headdress. The watercolor style is delicate and detailed, with soft colors and fine lines. The background is simple and neutral, highlighting the central figure. The artist's signature appears at the bottom right of the image. This work is interesting because it captures a scene from everyday life, with particular attention to clothing details and accessories.
Zénon Trigo or Pierre-Cénon Trigo (1850-1914) was born in Ataca, Spain, but spent most of his career in Nantes. He was a portraitist who studied under Eduardo Rosales Martinez (1836-1873). His paintings and watercolors delighted the people of Nantes. He was responsible for depicting all the vanished trades of old Nantes, from glazier to sweeper to umbrella mender. He sold his paintings on the market.
