This painting shows a still life with a few apples and a pomegranate. The apples are green and one is cut open. The pomegranate is brown and broken open. The fruit is on a dark background. The apples and pomegranate look realistic, like you could reach out and touch them. They are painted in a way that makes them look like they are in shadow. This painting is similar to the work of artist Augustin Théodule Ribot.
