About the piece

Painted in 1875, this early work by Paul Gauguin showcases his mastery of light and texture before his move toward Post-Impressionism. The composition balances a luminous glass carafe with the deep reds of cherries and a crisp white linen, set against a moody, olive-toned backdrop that evokes a sense of quiet contemplation.
