The painting is a rich composition that combines an assortment of fruits and vegetables with a plucked duck, all arranged in a naturalistic yet deliberate manner. The inclusion of a diverse range of objects not only displays Salini's technical prowess but also reflects the contemporary interest in botany, gastronomy, and the exotic goods flowing into Europe during this period.

Tommaso Salini (1575–1625) was a contemporary of Caravaggio and often associated with the Caravaggisti, a group of artists influenced by Caravaggio's dramatic use of chiaroscuro and realistic depictions of subjects.

The painting's composition is carefully constructed to lead the viewer's eye through the variety of colors and forms, from the textures of the straw basket to the soft down of the duck. The play of light and shadow enhances the three-dimensionality of the objects, creating a sense of depth and volume. This work is significant in Salini's oeuvre as it encapsulates the themes and techniques characteristic of his still lifes, which often included game, flowers, and kitchen scenes.
