EDITORS COMMENTS
In the captivating illustration titled "The Right Cigarette - In the Right Company," created by the talented artist Rilette in 1928, we are transported to an idyllic scene of camaraderie and relaxation. The setting sun casts a warm glow over a group of elegantly dressed gentlemen, each holding a cigarette in hand. The artist's deft use of color and brushstrokes brings the scene to life, with the rich hues of the tobacco leaves and the soft, smoky tones of the evening sky creating a sense of tranquility and contentment. The one cigarette that inspired Rilette to capture this moment in time remains a mystery. Its name lost to history, yet its presence is felt in every detail of the painting. The gentle curve of the smoke rising from each cigarette, the delicate ash falling to the ground, and the shared glance between companions all speak to the simple pleasure and companionship that comes with a well-earned rest and a good cigarette. Rilette's masterful depiction of this scene invites us to reflect on the simple joys of life and the company we keep. The artist's ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, and the emotions it evokes, is a testament to the power of art to transport us to another place and time.
