a still life that secretly composts itself while everyone admires the apples.
means A bowl or dish, usually kept on a table or counter, for holding and displaying fresh fruit.
from A plain compound of two old English staples: "fruit," from Latin "fructus" (produce, enjoyment, the thing you get to eat) via Old French "fruit," and "bowl," from Old English "bolla," a rounded vessel. Put them together and you simply name the round thing that holds the produce — the kind of literal English compound that needs no story because it is the story.
