An Apple

An Apple

Pittura, Simbolo / Lettera, Olio, 70x70cm
This painting is from my collection called "The Apple Paradise" Apple is a symbol of my home town Alma-Ata, which means the father of apples. The apple is rich in symbolism. The apple tree and the maiden are interchangeable symbols of the feminine Self, and the fruit is a symbol of nourishment and maturation of our knowledge of that Self. If our knowledge about the ways of our own soul is immature, we cannot be nourished from it. In the secular realm the apple, with its almost perfectly spherical form, functions as a symbol for the cosmos; thus many emperors and KINGS hold an "imperial apple" along with their scepter.
