“Apples and Grapes in a Basket,” created by Alfred Sisley in 1876, is an oil on canvas artwork belonging to the Impressionism movement. This still life composition measures 61.5 by 46 centimeters and is currently housed in the Clark Art Institute, located in Williamstown, Massachusetts, USA.
The artwork features a basket filled with grapes and apples placed atop a table adorned with a white, patterned cloth. Additionally, several apples are depicted scattered on the table, alongside a knife, suggesting a moment of domestic tranquility. Sisley’s characteristic soft focus and brushwork highlight the textural quality of the fruits and basket, while the interplay of light and shadow adds vibrancy to this engaging still life.
