Product Description
Apples, pears, plums, and other seasonal delights move Shakespeare to ecstasy, Garcia-Marquez to mystical observations, and Eliot to ask, "Do I dare to eat a peach?" The paintings by Chardin, Rossetti, and Durer offer only a taste of fruit's eternal appeal. 40 color illustrations.

Diana (USA: IA) (2010/03/20):
Great little book well made and done by a creative person, contains quotes re fruit and various art works where fruit is shown. The variety of expression is wide from wood cuts to paintings from ancient to current. Cover is great by itself - cherries everywhere. Smooth, high quality pages and cover. A gift book about 7 1/2 inches square
