Fruit - The Cultivated Gardener Author:Kristin Joyce Apples, pears, plums, and other seasonal delights move Shakespeare to ecstasy, Garcia-Marquez to mystical observations, and Eliot to ask, "Do I dare to eat a peach?" The paintings by Chardin, Rossetti, and Durer offer only a taste of fruit's eternal appeal. 40 color illustrations.
Enjoyable book with quotes re fruit, paintings and other art work re fruit. Just a brief read but a gorgeous fun book to own. Gift size, 7 1/2 by 7 1/2 square. Love the cover art work, cherries.
