The painting depicts a still life with a large fish, likely a rayfish, and some fruit. The fish is positioned on top, predominantly pale with shades of red, blue, and green. Its mouth is open, and its body appears distorted. Below the fish, on the left, is a brown teapot with a handle on the left side and a spout on the right. To the right of the teapot are two orange fruits stacked on top of each other. The objects are placed on a white cloth. The background is dark, predominantly shades of green, brown, and black. The overall style is expressionist with heavy brushstrokes and vivid colors.
