Crate of lemons on a market stall poster

Lemon crate on a market stall poster

Under a blue sky, a tower of wooden crates overflowing with lemons rises above a market stall with a red and white awning. A man and a woman stand in front of the fruit, on a cobbled square lined with pink and ochre facades. The vivid yellow of the citrus sets the tone for the whole image, fresh and luminous. This lemon poster tells the story of a simple market morning, with no frills, and the pleasure of produce piled up loose. The title “MARKET DAY” turns the scene into a small celebration of market day.

Market day on the kitchen wall

Vertical and very bright, it finds its place in a kitchen, near a breakfast nook or in a dining room. The yellow of the lemons stands out on a white, pale blue or sage green wall, and echoes wicker baskets, a wooden tray or a fruit bowl. It makes a lovely set with other kitchen or grocery posters. Give it to someone who loves cooking with fresh produce, a greengrocer, a friend who shops at the market every week, or for a housewarming.
