A row of shops, one of which has the name GIOVANNI, in reverse, over its door, leads to a square, or campo in which the sunlight is tempered by awnings and large umbrellas. The name of the street, CALLE PESCHERIA, is to be read on a placard on the wall over one of the fish shops. The detached line on the ground has been extended to the left and connected with the rest, and there is a new patch of dark shading a little above it. The portion of a building on the extreme right has been darkened with horizontal lines, and there is new vertical shading on the left side of the umbrella. Most of the windows of the three tall houses over the awning have been darkened.
