Assorted Blossom Months Represent Strawberries Straws


EDITORS COMMENTS
This beautiful and intriguing image, titled "Fruit / Apples Straws 1861," is a captivating representation of the months of May and June, as depicted in an exquisite 19th-century print from the Mary Evans Picture Library. The image showcases a lush arrangement of apples and strawberries, adorned with delicate blossoms, symbolizing the transition from spring to summer. The vibrant red strawberries, ripe and juicy, are nestled among the green leaves and stems of the apple tree, their lusciousness contrasting against the cool, crisp texture of the apples. The blossoms, in various shades of pink and white, add a delicate touch to the scene, symbolizing the beauty and fleeting nature of springtime. This print, produced in 1861, offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of fruit cultivation and the appreciation for the natural world during this period. The image invites us to reflect on the simple pleasures of life, as we admire the beauty of the fruit and the symbolism of the blossoms. The use of straws in the title may seem puzzling at first, but upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that they are not the modern-day plastic straws we are familiar with today. Instead, they are likely made of natural materials, such as bamboo or reeds, and were used to drink from glasses or cups during the Victorian era. The inclusion of straws in the title may be a nod to the popularity of fruit punches and other refreshing beverages during this time, adding an extra layer of historical significance to the image. Overall, "Fruit / Apples Straws 1861" is a stunning and evocative representation of the beauty and symbolism of the months of May and June, offering a glimpse into the past and inviting us to appreciate the simple pleasures of life.
