The fruits are carefully placed to create a balanced yet dynamic arrangement, showcasing Meléndez's skill in composition. The play of light and shadow is particularly noteworthy, as it highlights the natural beauty and form of the fruits, as well as the texture of the basket.
Luis Eugenio Meléndez's work is characterized by its intense naturalism and the artist's dedication to portraying the subject matter with honesty and without idealization.
