The dancing man originally wore a smaller collar and was portrayed hatless with an outstretched proper left arm. When the arm was lowered to its present position he held the hat in his hand. The opened door was added over the sky, and changes were made in the hat of the man slouched against it. The church steeple was taller and the poultry vendor's raised left hand had a tall glass in it. Small losses are found between the barrel and dancing man, to the left of the poultry vendor, in the serving maid at the far left, and along the edges.
Slight abrasion is present overall.
The blue skirt of the woman at far left and the bricks above her were unfinished. The painting was cleaned in 1930 and in 1944-1945.
