About the Item
Signed lower right.
Description
A socio-political play on the smoky, masculine enclave scene of a card game, seven men from all walks of life appear in a dim room, the table bearing four players brightly lit from above. The players may be read as symbolic of the class system. Clockwise, the law man with his badge, the tattooed and unshaven blue collar worker, the brilliantine white collar or upper class, viewed by suspicion by the former two, and the poor man, in his ill fitting and unbuttoned plaid shirt. These additional figures provide further commentary and social critique: From left, the disinterested or dejected, his face hidden by his cap. the center figure, who alone looked at the viewer as if daring them to make a bet or judgement call, and the studios bookie at far right, meticulously taking bets and following the score.
