Pumpkins, apples and figs crowd the canvas edge to edge in an autumn harvest still life. Two ribbed pumpkins sit beside a woven basket overflowing with red apples, with whole and halved purple figs showing their pink-red flesh, loose dried oak and maple leaves in gold, rust and burgundy, and a draped woven burlap-like cloth beneath.

Seen from a slightly elevated tabletop view, the arrangement is lit by warm, soft light from the upper left that picks out the ridges of the pumpkins and the skins of the apples before fading into shadow at the lower edges. Heavy palette-knife impasto on the fruit contrasts with hazier, softer brushwork in the blurred backdrop of autumn branches and leaves.
