Excelent picture.
B/W serves the purpose very well.
The DOF is also the best possible.
A nice detail from one of the most popular places in our city.
I wonder the significance of some of those details.
His winged helmet points to a God, the likes of Mars (God of war)or maybe Apolo (God of the oracles) but what he holds on his right hand is the winged cross with two serpents, symbol of medicine...
She, on the other hand, is dressed just like a normal typical country woman from start of last century. (they all wear DKNY and Dolce & Gabanna now!), so she's' probably one of the saleswomen in the market.
I'll try to look into that.
Kudos.

I like very much! Nothing I can add to perfection...

A perfect shot Luis, composition is great with wonderful detail and sharp contours and lines, very good focus with a very well controlled DoF, the B&W does it justice.
Magnificent, very well shot!
