The image displays a close-up view of numerous fresh, raw oysters arranged on a bed of crushed ice. Approximately twenty oysters are visible, featuring rugged, layered shells that range in color from light grey and beige to darker brown and olive green. Some shells exhibit white calcification and small, natural marine growths. The crushed ice forms a continuous, glistening layer beneath and around the oysters, appearing clear and crystalline. The background is a uniformly blurred, dark brown to black surface, consistent with the interior of a refrigerated display case. A narrow, light-toned, horizontal surface is partially visible along the bottom edge of the frame. No individuals are present. This type of fresh seafood display is commonly found in a gastronomic market, such as the Mercado de San Miguel, located in the Plaza de San Miguel in the city center of Madrid, Spain.
