Which apple?

 

I'm once again joining Elle from Empire of the Cat, our host this month at Art Journal Journey.  Her theme is Fairytales, Folklore, and Fables - Tell Me A Story. 

The question is, which is the poisoned apple?

This tale is part of the original Snow White and the evil stepmother Queen who wants to get rid of Snow White and once again be the fairest in the land.

After a couple of failed attempts to get rid of Snow White, the Queen dresses up as a farmer's wife and offers Snow White a poisoned apple.  To convince Snow White, the Queen eats the white non-poisoned half and gives Snow White the poisoned red half.  She immediately falls into a coma, from which even the dwarfs can't revive her.

 

The dwarfs place Snow White in a glass casket and prepare for her funeral. Luckily, while on a hunting trip, a prince comes by and offers to take her back to her father's castle for a proper burial.  While returning to the castle, a foot soldier carrying the casket stumbles and falls.  This causes the poisoned apple lodged in Snow White's throat to dislodge and she is miraculously revived.

Granted, that is not the entire story, but I will leave that for others to explore.

I started this page using a piece of scrapbook paper, to which I added several apples.  A couple of the apples came from a grocery flyer, which is the thinnest paper around.  Sadly, the grocery paper buckled a bit.  However, I think you get the concept of the page.  If you can't read my handwriting (and I often can't read it myself), it reads "Which is the poisoned apple?"

Bleubeard and I are simply thrilled you joined us today, and hope to see you at Art Journal Journey with your own take on Fairytales, Folklore, and Fables - Tell Me A Story.
