Toile imprimée pour broderie de perles (sans perles) « Récolte »

“Harvest” shows two grey kittens peeping out of an old wooden crate among the autumn produce. The subject is warm and a little mischievous.

What the picture shows

At the centre stands a worn crate of brick-red boards with two smoky grey kittens looking out of it — white chests and paws, attentive green eyes. Behind them red apples lie in a wooden chest; below are scattered yellow pumpkins, corn cobs with green husks, one more apple with a little face on the right, and red-orange autumn leaves. The background is a wall of old boards in warm brown. Coverage is partial: beads work the crate, the pumpkins, the corn, the apples and the leaves, while the kittens themselves and the wooden wall stay printed on the canvas, so the fur keeps the softness of the painting.
