Stillleben mit Äpfeln

Amerikanische Malerei 1885–1890, 1886

In this painting, a pile of apples is spread out on a wooden surface, with some stacked atop each other. The apples are predominantly red, but some have large patches of light green or yellow. They have short brown stems. The main pile of apples is slightly to the left of center, and some apples are away from the pile, towards the edges of the surface. The apples cast shadows on the wooden surface, suggesting a light coming from the right side. The light also reflects off of the apples. Behind the apples is a dark gray wall.
