EDITORS COMMENTS
A Delightful Scene from Kate Greenaway's Iconic Illustration "Apple Pie" (1886) This enchanting image is taken from the beloved children's book "Apple Pie" by renowned English illustrator, Kate Greenaway. Published in 1886, this timeless work showcases Greenaway's exceptional talent for capturing the essence of childhood innocence and the beauty of nature. In this particular illustration, a young girl, dressed in a red dress and white apron, is seen proudly holding up a freshly baked apple pie. The pie, with its golden crust and steaming filling, sits atop a rustic wooden table. Surrounding the scene are various autumnal fruits, including apples, pears, and plums, scattered among vibrant leaves. The girl's cherubic brother, with rosy cheeks and mischievous grin, peeks over her shoulder, reaching out to steal a slice of the pie. The playful expression on his face contrasts with the serene look on the girl's, adding an element of fun and mischief to the scene. Greenaway's use of soft colors, intricate details, and whimsical compositions make this illustration an iconic piece of children's literature. The apple pie itself has become a symbol of the simple pleasures of childhood and the joy of sharing a homemade treat with loved ones. This image not only represents the beauty of nature and the innocence of childhood but also serves as a testament to Kate Greenaway's enduring influence on children's literature and illustration.
