Wzór do haftu koralikowego na kanwie artystycznej (bez koralików) „Miłośnik jabłek”

“Apple fan” — a small bird has settled on the rim of a wicker basket of apples, beneath a branch heavy with ripe fruit.

What the picture shows

A branch with large red-and-yellow apples runs across the top of the canvas; their sides are painted with a warm blush, and beads lie in dense rows over the whole surface of the fruit. Beside them are lush green leaves and thin twigs that look dusted with frost. A honey-coloured wicker basket stands at the lower right, holding a few more apples and a yellow leaf. On its rim perches a bird with a dark cap, a white cheek and a rusty back. The background is cool grey-blue and blurred, like watercolour. The beading is partial: beads cover the apples, the leaves, the basket and the bird, while the misty ground and part of the branches stay as print on the canvas, so the warm fruit steps clearly forward.
