Summary:
A horizontal still life of a variety of fruits, vegetables, flowers, and fabrics in mixed patterns. From the left, a sultans crown rests on draped purple and beige fabrics, hanging down from above. An unopened bottle of red wine stands against green patterned wallpaper. To the right of the wine, a green and white squash, a sweet potato, green and yellow pears, limes, red and green apples, and a pomegranate are all loosely arranged on a white napkin laid over an orange tablecloth. These, as well as a white vase full of orange and yellow flowers, are set before a cascade of patterned fabrics flowing down behind them.
