EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the 17th - 18th century, showcasing a manufacturer of playing cards. The engraving, created by an unknown artist from that era, beautifully captures the essence of this skilled craftsman at work. Intriguingly dressed in period costume, the card maker is depicted meticulously engraving intricate designs onto each individual card. With focused concentration and steady hands, he brings these pieces of art to life. His expertise and attention to detail are evident as he carefully carves out every line and curve. The image transports us into a world where playing cards were not just tools for entertainment but also works of art. It invites us to imagine the excitement and joy that people must have experienced when holding these exquisite creations in their hands during game nights or social gatherings. Although we do not know who this talented artist was, their legacy lives on through this enchanting engraving. Stefano Bianchetti has skillfully preserved this historical artwork for future generations to appreciate. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the timeless appeal of games and how they have been an integral part of human culture throughout history.
