The enormous painting was the first we saw as we entered the Art Gallery.  It was a spectacular work of an apple displayed on a silken yellow cloth.  The exhibition the in the National Gallery was in celebration of the apple; which has been a symbol of knowledge, immortality and liberty since the story of Adam and Eve.  It was for this reason the apple was adopted by New York as the State fruit in 1976.  The apple has been cultivated and a vital part of our daily diet since at least the days of the Roman Empire.
