These characters, ranging from individuals in contemplative solitude to groups in casual interaction, illustrate the everyday life of the era. Some are seated on the steps, engaged in conversation or lost in thought, while others stroll leisurely through the arcade, adding a dynamic element to the scene.Robert’s use of soft lines and delicate shading not only highlights the architectural details but also gently captures the interplay of light and shadow, enhancing the depth and the perspective of the arcade.
