Les Halles on a chilly winter's morning, by one of the Baltard pavilions. A nun wearing a black habit with a capelet covering her shoulders and a veil and white starched coif on her head is hurrying through the central food market past "diables", or barrows, and wooden crates stacked and tied up. She is pushing her small two-wheeled metal hand truck with slatted wooden boxes containing her purchases. She is returning to the convent. Quartier des Halles, 1er arrondissement, Right Bank, Paris, France, circa 1960s.
