Strawberries and Cream

Amerikanische Malerei 1815–1826, 1816

A clear glass pitcher filled with white milk and a plate of bright red strawberries are the main focus of this painting. The plate of strawberries is on the left, and wide green leaves and small white flowers extend beyond the plate to the left and right. The glass pitcher is placed to the right of the strawberries, reflecting small squares of light. The surface under the plate and pitcher is blue-gray with hints of wood grain, and the wall behind them is dark brown, with an area of lighter brown on the right.
