A tall weathered copper pot overflowing with leafy green branches anchors the right of the composition. Around it, a dark ceramic bowl holds two apples, and more red-gold apples rest on a wooden tabletop beside a few fallen leaves and a small twig.

Soft light falls from the upper left, picking out the curved copper and the tops of the apples while the background fades into shadow. Loose brushwork and blended transitions in earthy terracotta, maroon, olive and gold give the scene a warm, old-world farmhouse mood.
