Brief Description
A bowl of fruit, a white cloth, a decorative pot, and a patterned wall
Detailed Description
A central white, shallow bowl overflows with approximately a dozen pieces of fruit, varying in color from green to yellow to red, suggesting apples or pears. The bowl rests on a rumpled white cloth that drapes over the edge of a brown wooden table, which occupies the lower portion of the canvas. To the right of the fruit bowl, on the same white cloth, is a white lidded pot with a yellow rim and blue decorative patterns. Next to the pot, a single green apple sits directly on the white cloth. The background is a wall painted in shades of blue and gray, featuring decorative elements. These include two large, stylized white and pink roses with green leaves, one on the left and one on the right, flanking a central, ornate, light-colored architectural or furniture piece with scrollwork and a rectangular recess.
