EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jan Havicksz Steen's painting "Joueurs de tric trac (Tric trac players)" a masterpiece of Dutch art from the 17th century. The oil on wood composition measures 45.5 x 39 cm and was created in 1667, now residing in the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg. The scene depicted is one of everyday life, capturing a moment of leisure and camaraderie. A group of individuals can be seen engrossed in a game of Tric trac, an old French backgammon-like board game. The vibrant colors used by Steen bring this lively scene to life, with each character displaying their own unique personality. Amidst the players sits a woman, fully engaged in the game alongside her male counterparts. A faithful dog rests at her feet, adding an element of warmth and companionship to the atmosphere. The room itself is filled with various elements that contribute to its coziness - from the table and chairs to pipes and tobacco for smoking enjoyment. As we observe this artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a momentary respite from daily routines. It serves as a reminder that even centuries ago, people sought solace and entertainment through games and social interactions. This piece not only represents Dutch art but also captures universal themes such as friendship, relaxation, and indulgence in simple pleasures like good company over wine or food.
