- Abstract
-
"Two men play at a small round card-table, the cribbage-board between them. One (left), fashionably dressed, has thrown his cards on the table, rising slightly from his chair, with a stare of triumph at his opponent. The latter, elderly and old-fashioned, holds his cards, and stares with melancholy surprise at those on the table. A large snuff-box lies on the floor, overturned. Behind them is a folding screen which partly conceals a picture: a man, dressed as a jester, performing a conjuring trick to astonished spectators."--British Museum catalogue
