Rather than showing whole apples, this picture presents them as part of a finished dish: fried donuts served with an apple compote, which is fruit stewed gently until soft, and an apple cider reduction, made by simmering cider down into a thick, concentrated syrup. Both techniques were common in home kitchens long before food photography became a specialty, and they show how a single fruit can be cooked into several textures and flavors. Because the record places the image in a book category, it was probably meant to illustrate a recipe, where the glossy sauces and warm pastry make the components easy to picture.
