About the artwork:
"Fish Market by the Sea" likely depicts a lively coastal scene bustling with activity. The setting would typically feature various figures engaged in buying, selling, and handling fish, showcasing the daily life and vibrancy of a seaside market. Given Dadd’s attention to detail, the painting would be filled with minute elements that capture the essence of the marketplace — from the textures of the fish and fabrics to the expressions and interactions of the market-goers.
