Magritte painted at least a dozen pictures of apples wearing masks. He was fond of this theme and was often asked to paint it. He created his first version of an apple in a mask for the cover of View magazine in 1946. Later, his apples sometimes appear as singletons, sometimes in pairs, sometimes under a daytime sky with the title La Valse hesitation (The Hesitation Waltz), and sometimes under a night sky, in which case they bear the title Le Pretre marie (The Married Priest).
