Painting depicting a still life composed of grapes overflowing from a basket, two pears, a covered ceramic pot, and a vermeil coffee pot. Autumnal vine leaves contrast with the mauve hues of the grapes. Beautiful play of light. Rich giltwood frame with its label bearing the artist's name. Signed on the canvas lower left: Brunel de Neuville.
