The image depicts a still life with a large round fruit, possibly a pomegranate, and a cluster of grapes arranged on an oval dish, placed atop a draped fabric. The color palette is monochromatic, composed of shades of black, gray, and white. The large fruit is positioned towards the upper left of the dish, while the grapes spill over towards the lower right. The fabric beneath the dish is folded and positioned diagonally across the scene.
