The Cardsharps - Caravaggio
This painting is an early work by Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio, known as "Caravaggio". The Baroque painter depicts three card players, one of whom, seen from three-quarters of the way up, is discreetly cheating. Far from the more religious works that would later make the Italian artist famous, this 1595 painting is both colorful, entertaining and amusing.
