Chinese Mahjong players

Mahjong, game of Chinese origin dating to over two thousand years ago. For centuries, Mahjong remained exclusive of the royal class. It was against the law for commoners to play. However, around 500 A.D. the penalty was lifted, which enabled everyone who desired to play Mahjong to do so

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Bernard Allum captures the essence of Chinese Mahjong players, showcasing a game deeply rooted in ancient traditions. Mahjong, originating over two thousand years ago, was once reserved exclusively for the royal class. Commoners were forbidden from indulging in this beloved pastime until around 500 A. D. , when the ban was lifted and opened doors for all who desired to play. The image depicts a scene reminiscent of an oriental woodblock art painting, with brush strokes and vibrant colors bringing life to each character. Men dressed in robes and kimonos sit around a screen partition engrossed in their intense competition. The textured effect adds an antique charm to the overall composition. Amidst a backdrop of cherry trees and Mt Fuji, these players engage in strategic moves while surrounded by elements symbolizing nature's beauty. The presence of grass, flowers, rocks, and bowls evokes a sense of tranquility amidst the excitement of gameplay. Bernard Allum skillfully captures not only the physical aspects but also the cultural significance behind this traditional Chinese game. This print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and a historical documentation that sheds light on China's rich heritage
