Preston Dickinson’s composition presents a seemingly casual arrangement of eggplants and lemons amid a tabletop setting with a bowl, knife, and napkins. A loosely corked bottled beverage stands at left, and a lightly sketched chairback occupies an otherwise empty background. Commonly thought to be vegetables, eggplants are technically berries.
