About the piece

Painted in 1878, this work showcases Paul Cézanne's masterful approach to form and volume. The composition balances heavy objects—a dark floral bottle and a tall glass—with a scattered selection of fruit across a rumpled white cloth, all set against a deep, atmospheric background that highlights the tactile quality of the subjects.
