The painting shows a lively outdoor scene at a traditional market with a selection of stalls selling fresh produce. In the foreground, two women approach a seated vendor selling a variety of local fruits including mangosteen, coconuts and bananas. Trishaw services are used as a form of transport in this small town and are rendered in the background, adding perspective and depth to the composition.
