About the piece

Painted in 1878 by French master Henri Fantin-Latour, this still life captures the quiet beauty of a harvest. The composition centers on a dark, bulbous vase containing leafy branches laden with apples, set against a neutral, textured background that emphasizes the vibrant greens and warm autumnal tones of the fruit. Known for his floral and still-life works, Fantin-Latour's luminous technique brings a tactile quality to the foliage and the waxy surface of the apples.
