An old man who is a herb seller sits at his improvised corner in the Rue de Seine market with several wooden slatted fruit and vegetable crates and boxes filled with his stock. A woman has just bought a bunch of fresh parsley. The carpenter in his improvised work clothes has just come out of his workshop in the background where he makes cageots a fruit - fruit and vegetable crates in a traditional style. In the corner of his workshop a pile of thin slats of box wood rising to the ceiling will be made into fruit boxes. 6e arrondissement, St-Germain-des-Pres, Left Bank, Paris, France, 1963.
