"They condense the eroticism of Wesselmann's Great American Nudes into succinct images of formal grandeur—only the Smokers are more symbolic, more fantastic, not plainly erotic like the Nudes but secretly obscene."
— (D. Kuspit, quoted in "Tom Wesselmann at Janis," Art in America, September-October 1974, p. 110)
