The Card Players

$6,100

Description:

The Card Players is a series of five oil paintings by Paul Cézanne, created between 1890 and 1895. The paintings depict Provencal peasants engaged in a quiet, concentrated game of cards, showcasing Cézanne’s signature use of geometric forms, structured composition, and muted color palettes. Unlike traditional card-playing scenes that often depict rowdy gamblers, Cézanne’s version is calm and contemplative, emphasizing form over narrative. One version of The Card Players became one of the most expensive paintings ever sold, reportedly purchased for over $250 million by the Qatari royal family in 2011. The series is considered a masterpiece of Post-Impressionism, bridging realism and abstraction.

Artist:

Paul Cézanne (1839–1906) was a French Post-Impressionist painter whose work laid the foundation for modern art, particularly Cubism. Known for his innovative use of color, geometric forms, and layered brushstrokes, Cézanne sought to depict the underlying structure of nature. His still lifes, landscapes, and portraits, such as Mont Sainte-Victoire and The Card Players, demonstrate his unique approach to perspective and composition. Often considered the “father of modern art,” Cézanne’s influence extended to artists like Picasso and Matisse, shaping the evolution of 20th-century painting.
