Fish Market is a mid-16th century painting by the Dutch artist Joachim Beuckelaer. Done in oil on wood (Baltic oak), the work depicts a bustling fish market. Painted during the waning years of the Beeldenstorm, the painting reflects the changing subject of Dutch art from religious to secular themes. The work is currently in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]
