Apples sliced thin and layered with cinnamon in a baking dish make up the whole scene here, with no setting or people to draw the eye away from the fruit. Pictures of household cooking like this were common in American print and magazine work of the early twentieth century, when home economics and cookbook illustration aimed to show ordinary kitchen food as tidy, appealing and within reach of any homemaker. Look at how the cinnamon dusts the pale slices and how the dish frames them, since that arrangement was the point of the picture as much as the apples themselves.
