About the piece

Painted around 1870 by American artist Carducius Plantagenet Ream, this oil on canvas captures the tactile quality of plums resting in a shaded outdoor setting. The deep green tones of the moss and the dark, moody background create a striking contrast with the soft, powdery bloom on the fruit's skin.
