Quickly brushed, brightly painted, slanting strokes depict a still life of a bowl of apples and a ceramic jug on a table. At center left, five apples in orange, yellow and red are piled in a low, white porcelain dish, which sits on a rumpled white cloth on a brown table top. At center right, standing just behind the bowl, a rough brown ceramic jug has been molded with its top in the form of a human head in profile facing left. A bright green pear lies on the table at right, and a landscape painting hung on a wall can be seen in the background.
