## Commentary

Thc Rococo was not an interesting period in Bruges painting or that of Flanders in general. Few works in this style sustain the quality achieved by Flemish artists in other periods. Jan Antoon Garemijn is the only Bruges painter to rise above mediocrity with his lively technique. The Pandreitje was used as a vegetable market. Here meat-sellers occupy the portico of the prison building.
