EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning coloured wood engraving titled "King and Queen playing cards" by the French School in the 17th century. The artwork, housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, captures the essence of a royal couple engaged in an intense card game. The intricate details of this piece are truly remarkable. Every line and stroke on the xylograph brings life to these court cards, making them appear almost three-dimensional. The artist's skill is evident as they expertly portray the regal attire and expressions of both the King and Queen. Printed by Hector de Trois in Paris, this work exemplifies the artistry that was prevalent during this era. It beautifully combines elements of pochoir colouring with traditional engraving techniques to create a visually striking composition. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be drawn into their world - a world where games were not merely entertainment but also reflections of power dynamics and strategy. The spades symbolize strength and authority while reminding us that even rulers engage in leisurely activities like playing cards. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind it but also offers us a glimpse into history itself. It serves as a reminder that art has always been intertwined with human culture, reflecting our values, aspirations, and even our pastimes.
