Description

BOURDA GREEN Pen and Ink Drawing in pointillism by Kenton Wyatt a prominent Guyanese Artist well know for his Pen and Ink Drawings.

In the late 19th century, the decision was made for the construction of a market that would stand the test of time in order to accommodate the increasing number of vendors in Georgetown; that market has survived to this very day.

While little official information appears available about the history of Bourda Market, previous unofficial research relates that Bourda market was originally built in 1880, and was soon reconstructed in 1902 to accommodate a growing number of vendors and consumers. ( Guyana Times Inc.)
