- Original oil painting on canvas.
- Classical still life composition featuring fruits, books, and a pitcher.
- Warm, earthy tones dominate the palette, creating a comforting and inviting ambiance.
The artist has captured the interplay of light and shadow, giving life to the textures of the fruits' skins, the pitcher's glossy surface, and the spines of the books.

In good condition with wear and tear appropriate for age and use to include some paint-loss as pictures. This piece is well-preserved, with the natural craquelure of the paint adding to its authenticity and charm.
