The painting which is located inside the 'new' Smithfield Market shows the old row on Gresham Street where for 62 years, local legend Joseph Kavanagh traded. With the whole Smithfield area dwarved by the Castle Court development, Kavanagh finally ceased to trade in October 2000 aged 83. His famous motto was: "I buy anything!".
