Still Life with Grapes and a Carnation

Henri Fantin-Latour's Still Life with Grapes and a Carnation, an 1880 painting, is a still life depicting a bowl of grapes and a single carnation. The bowl, which appears to be porcelain with a blue and white design, sits on a white tablecloth. The grapes are a mix of green and dark purple varieties. A cluster of green grapes rests on the tablecloth next to the bowl, and a single red carnation lies near them. The background is a dark, muted brown. The painting measures 0.47 meters in width and 0.305 meters in height and is part of the National Gallery of Art's collection.
