A watercolor painting of a bustling medieval marketplace. The scene is vibrant with townsfolk in period attire bartering over goods. Stalls are adorned with colorful fabrics, fresh fruits, and handcrafted wares. In the background, the silhouette of a castle looms over the scene, and the sky is a soft pastel hue, suggesting early morning light. Children play in the cobblestone streets, and a minstrel with a lute provides a cheerful soundtrack to the lively scene
