- Abstract
-
A street scene in Paris, at corner of Pont Neuf: a blind man and a lame man beg on the sidewalk beside a bookseller's stall, the seller in glasses looing up at his shelves under an awning. Two street vendors sit in the street: a man with a peg leg holds a brush up along side his shoe shining equipment; above his head a sign with a cage hanging from it reads "La fond. Cond proprement les chiens et coupe les chats et tient depot de mort au rats.". Beside him a woman shears a sheep. Above her head a sign on the right margin: Catrinne coup chien et chat et son mari va-en ville. On the left along the wall a woman carries a dog in a bag and a turkey in her arms. Two other men show signs of shame and fear
