JOHN NORVAL MARCHAND. Market in the Jewish Ghetto. Illustration for an unknown publication or advertisement, circa 1900. Gouache with wash on board. 623x558 mm; 24 1/2x21 3/4 inches. Signed in lower right. Contemporary label on verso providing what appears to be reproduction size and listing the subject as "Clothes." Framed.
A charming scene of clothing peddlers, likely in New York, with shop signs in Yiddish and English. While Marchand is best known for his Western scenes, he was an active and prolific illustrator for turn-of-the-century magazines such as Munsey and The New York World.
