Two clusters of grapes are depicted in this painting, hanging down from the top. The left cluster includes reddish-purple grapes, while the right cluster contains green grapes, both attached to vines that loop around thin, leafy branches at the top of the painting. Light illuminates the grapes on the right, while the left sides of the clusters are in shadow. The wide leaves at the top contain shades of green and orange-brown. The background behind the grapes is brown, lighter on the right and darker on the left.
