"Will You Buy?" is a notable painting by the Swiss-born artist Nicholas Chevalier, who was active during the 19th century. Chevalier, known for his landscape paintings and contributions to the art scenes in Australia and New Zealand, created "Will You Buy?" in 1874. This work exemplifies his adept skill in capturing the essence of everyday life and the natural environment with a keen eye for detail and composition.

The painting depicts a bustling street market scene, likely set in Melbourne, where Chevalier spent a significant portion of his career. The title, "Will You Buy?", suggests an interaction between a vendor and potential customers, encapsulating the lively and dynamic atmosphere of the market. Chevalier's use of vibrant colors and meticulous brushwork brings the scene to life, highlighting the textures of the market goods and the varied expressions of the people.

Chevalier's background in lithography and his experience as an illustrator for publications such as the "Illustrated London News" are evident in the detailed and narrative quality of the painting. His ability to blend elements of European artistic traditions with the unique characteristics of the Australian landscape and society is a hallmark of his work.

"Will You Buy?" is not only a testament to Chevalier's artistic prowess but also serves as a valuable historical document, offering insights into the social and economic activities of the time. The painting is part of the collection at the National Gallery of Victoria, where it continues to be appreciated by art enthusiasts and historians alike. Through this work, Chevalier's legacy as a significant figure in the development of Australian art is firmly established.
