This is a local, neighborhood market.

The fish and other seafood are fresh, and

the merchant has a busy day

serving his patrons with little time to stage the display.

Wish that I was having some oysters tonight.

One of the oldest covered market in Paris

features Baltard style glass and ironwork with high ceilings

and an expanse of windows.

These architectural details permit

much natural light and great ventilation.
