EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting world of the casino at Monte Carlo in 1899. The table of games is beautifully captured by the French School, showcasing the opulence and grandeur that defined this iconic establishment. The image transports us to a time when gambling was an art form, and Monte Carlo was its epicenter. The elegant croupiers stand poised behind their tables, ready to deal out fortunes or misfortunes with each turn of the cards. Patrons dressed in their finest attire gather around, eagerly placing bets and hoping for a stroke of luck. The composition exudes a sense of anticipation as we observe players engrossed in intense concentration or engaged in animated conversations. Smoke swirls above them, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to this scene straight out of a classic novel. As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, it becomes clear why Monte Carlo became synonymous with high stakes gambling and lavish entertainment. This photograph captures not only the essence of a bygone era but also serves as a testament to human nature's eternal fascination with risk-taking and chance. Leonard de Selva skillfully preserves this moment for posterity through his lens, allowing us to marvel at both the beauty and complexity found within these walls. It stands as a reminder that even after more than a century has passed since its capture, the allure of Monte Carlo continues to captivate imaginations worldwide.
