There are two main types of cherries - sweet and sour. Sweet cherries are often eaten fresh, but the tart sour cherries are sweetened and used in pies, sauces, pastries, and smoothies.
Duke cherries are a cross between the sweet and sour varieties. Ornamental cherry trees also exist that produce no edible fruit at all.
The cherry has been eaten since antiquity, and has probably found its way into our artwork for just as long. We see one example in the painting Cherry Time by Salvatore Postiglione.
From at least the sixteenth century onward, the cherry was used in art to represent sin. Today, the cherry is often featured in pop art, in jewelry and accessories, and on children's toys and school supplies.
