Red apples hang in clusters from a low branch, their skins blushed deep crimson where the sun reached them most. Apples like these were a staple of American orchards, and fruit labels from the late 1800s and early 1900s often celebrated varieties in just this bright, glossy style. Images of single crops and single trees were used to market the fruit to growers and grocers, so the picture doubles as both a record of orchard life and a piece of commercial art. Look closely at the leaves and the way the fruit catches light to see the care that went into the printing.
