This painting shows a dark shelf with a few simple objects. There’s a wicker basket, a small wooden bowl, and a few onions and apples. The colors are mostly dark browns and blacks, but the apples and onions glow slightly in the dim light. The brushstrokes look thick and rough, almost like the artist slapped the paint on. This makes the objects stand out against the dark background. Look up impasto next to see how this technique works.
