Bartering depicts a market teemed with goods and people. The market is teemed with a variety of grains, vegetables among other items of trade. Everyone in the market is busy in their activities. Moreover, we can see a hardworking mother on the background who is among the sellers taking care of her baby. At the same time, buyers on the left are probably trying to negotiate prices of goods with the sellers. The painting underscores a moment of abundance and industrious attitudes of these people. Trading is an important economic activity in every culture.
