EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "There's no smoke without fire" we are transported to a moment of domestic tranquility and culinary artistry. The image, a colour litho by Antoine Charles Horace Vernet (Carle), captures the essence of an intimate scene in which food, love, and tradition intertwine. The focal point of the composition is a couple engaged in the timeless ritual of preparing a meal together. The woman delicately holds a pot over an open flame while her partner attentively lights his pipe nearby. Their synchronized movements suggest not only their shared passion for cooking but also their deep connection as they navigate the harmonious dance that is life. As wisps of smoke gracefully rise from both the simmering pot and the gentleman's pipe, we are reminded that every action has its consequences – there can be no effect without cause. This metaphorical representation invites us to reflect on how our choices shape our lives and relationships. Through Vernet's masterful use of color and light, he transports us into this private collection where time seems to stand still. We become witnesses to an intimate moment frozen in eternity; one that celebrates not only culinary expertise but also the beauty found within simple everyday moments. "There's no smoke without fire" serves as a poignant reminder that beneath life's surface lies hidden depths waiting to be explored – just like this mesmerizing artwork captured by Bridgeman Images.
