EDITORS COMMENTS
This colour lithograph, titled "A maker of idols is never an idolater" by Rene Bull, takes us on a journey into the world of Eastern proverbs. The image showcases a thought-provoking scene from early 20th-century cigarette cards published by Churchman. In this intricate artwork, we are transported to a realm where history and tradition intertwine. A skilled craftsman meticulously carves an idol with utmost devotion and precision. His hands move gracefully, bringing life to the inert material before him. Yet, despite his artistry in creating these revered figures, he remains unaffected by their allure. The proverbial wisdom embedded within this print speaks volumes about human nature and its ability to resist temptation even when surrounded by objects of desire. It reminds us that those who possess the skill to create beauty need not succumb to its seductive power. The vibrant colours and meticulous details bring depth and richness to this historical piece of art. As we gaze upon it, we can almost feel the artist's passion emanating from every brushstroke. This photograph print serves as both an educational tool and a visual delight for admirers of fine art. It invites us to ponder upon the profound meaning behind ancient sayings while appreciating Bull's artistic prowess in capturing such complex emotions through his work. With each glance at this remarkable composition, we are reminded that true mastery lies not only in creation but also in one's ability to remain detached from what they create – a lesson worth cherishing for generations
