Again in Brussels. Just a bit of sunlight getting through there. The shop had no name and I'm not sure what you would call this sort of shop in French. In England it would be a "Junk shop" or these days as they are mainly run by charities, a "Charity shop". Note this is different from an "Antique shop" where things would be mostly old and valuable. Here there were straw hats prettily strewn about the window and there is actually a bull's head!! Don't know if you can make it out.

Hi Sheila, I like all of these paintings of store fronts, so interesting. Once again you have painted a complicated subject and made sense of it. I just love your work.
Thank you Barbara. I tried to make the hat at the front of the window dominate so that in the busy painting the eye had somewhere to rest.
