About The Card Players
The Card Players is an 1808 genre painting by the British artist David Wilkie. It features a group of figures playing card game in a room in a tavern or kitchen. Stylistically it draws inspiration from the classic genre scenes of the Dutch Old Masters. The young Scotsman Wilkie burst onto the London art world with his The Village Politicians in 1806. His genre paintings were popular and influential throughout the Regency era.
