- Abstract
-
"A game is just finished: a pretty elegant girl (right) has nine tricks, and an elderly spinster in old-fashioned dress, with spectacles on forehead, has four. They argue, gesturing with their hands, while the two men watch the girl intently. A dog barks at her. The room is lit by two candles from a sconce. Two pictures are on the wall, an owl in a bush, and a half-length portrait of a man, who seems to be watching the game intently, finger on lip"--British Museum online catalogue
