The painting depicts a still life of apple blossoms by Martin Johnson Heade. The blossoms are pink with five petals and have a yellow center. They are clustered on a branch with green leaves. The branch has a thick, brown trunk that splits into two main stems. The blossoms and leaves are positioned on the upper half of the painting. A single blossom and two leaves are on a dark brown wooden surface. The background is a muted greenish-gray color. The overall composition is simple and focused on the blossoms.
