EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pieter Codde's masterpiece "Tric-Trac Players, 1628". Painted during the Dutch Golden Age, this oil on panel artwork measures 19.9x26.9 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Mauritshuis museum in The Hague, Netherlands. The painting depicts a lively scene of men engrossed in a game of Tric-Trac, a popular backgammon-like board game during that era. Seated around an elegant wooden table, these gentlemen are deeply engaged in conversation while enjoying their pastime activity. Their animated expressions and gestures suggest intense competition and camaraderie. The composition exudes the opulence and refinement typical of Baroque art with its rich colors and intricate details. One visitor can be seen holding a sword by his side, adding an intriguing element to the otherwise serene ambiance. Codde skillfully captures the essence of domestic entertainment during this period, providing us with a glimpse into Dutch society's leisurely pursuits. The halberdier standing nearby adds an interesting contrast between social classes within this convivial setting. With its octagonal shape and impeccable execution, "Tric-Trac Players" stands as both a conversation piece and an exquisite example of Dutch art from the Golden Age. This print allows admirers worldwide to appreciate Codde's mastery for themselves without any commercial use intentions involved.
