This page shows two rows of painted cherries. The top row has four dark red cherries hanging from stems, each with slight shadows under them. The bottom row has five brighter red cherries clustered together on a short stem, also with shadows. The dates written in the corners suggest these were painted in 1750 and 1751, likely as careful observations of real fruit. Next, check out watercolor to see how artists use thin layers of paint to create depth.
