The painting is made in oil on canvas. It is an attempt to convey the autumn mood through a still life. Autumn often is a cause of melancholic feelings, something leaving and a desire to make plans for the future. Towards the end, it often increase these feelings and relaxes. Therefore, the picture brings together autumn fruits, as a symbol of the harvest, achievements and experience that was gained over the past year. A small statuette in the antique style and an antique vase - a symbol of the eternal, forcing you to think about the future. Completes the composition a glass of wine, which adds a picture a relaxing mood. Drink wine is always slowly to enjoy every sip. But the main feature of the painting, which is the cause of autumn mood, most of all, is not composition and objects, but the color scheme and background decorated of leaves and autumn colors.
