Few foods have been pictured as often as the apple pie, a dish that came to America from English kitchens and was adapted to local orchards, which grew abundant fruit in many regions by the 1800s. Its place in American life grew over time, and by the early twentieth century the pie had become a common symbol of home cooking, family gatherings and rural plenty. Pictures of it often lean on that sentiment, showing the dessert as much as a feeling as a meal. Look closely at the crust, the lattice or the shape of the slices to see how the cook chose to present something so familiar.
