"Apples and Grapes" is one of three similar still lifes painted in 1879–80, when bad weather forced Monet to work indoors. Marthe Hoschedé, the artist's future stepdaughter, observed in a letter from late November 1879, "M. Monet is working hard at his still lifes which are very pretty," mentioning a "painting of fruits" as a work in progress. All three still lifes in this group depict apples and grapes in the same basket, asymmetrically placed on a bright white tablecloth.
