Against a blue background woven with thick brushstrokes, a selection of fruits and vegetables—including a pumpkin, cabbage, pepper, and grapefruit—are arranged. The painting’s striking use of color and texture gives the subjects a sense of depth and richness, while the attention to light and shadow brings a sense of life and energy to the composition.
