EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "As by fire" transports us to a world of passion and pleasure, as envisioned by the talented illustrator C. Dudley Tennant. Created in 1920 for the publication "Poems of Passion and Pleasure" this engraving beautifully captures the entwined embrace of two snakes, symbolizing desire and sensuality. Tennant's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every stroke, bringing these reptilian creatures to life on paper. The serpents' sinuous bodies intertwine with grace and elegance, their scales shimmering under an imaginary firelight. As we gaze upon this artwork, we can almost feel the heat radiating from their passionate union. The artist's choice of subject matter speaks volumes about human emotions and desires. Snakes have long been associated with temptation, seduction, and transformation across various cultures throughout history. In Tennant's interpretation, they become metaphors for our own innermost passions that burn within us like a raging fire. This mesmerizing print invites us to explore our own depths of passion and pleasure while reminding us of the primal instincts that reside within all living beings. It serves as a timeless reminder that love has always been an intricate dance between vulnerability and strength. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from Charles Dudley Tennant's collection so that it may continue to inspire generations with its evocative beauty and profound symbolism.
