EDITORS COMMENTS
This full-length oil painting by Charles Emanuel Biset, titled 'Trictrac Players; Chequers Players, 1648-1710,' transports us back to the 17th century with its rich depiction of Danish leisure and fashion. The scene unfolds in a rustic setting, with a grand fireplace and an ornate wooden table at its center, upon which rests the game of Trictrac, also known as backgammon. Two elegantly dressed figures, a man and a woman, engage in the game, their faces focused intently on the board. The man, dressed in a long, voluminous coat and a tall hat adorned with a feather, pours liquor from a glass into a second glass, while the woman, in a flowing gown with a sash and a lace collar, holds a tray of oysters. Two servants, dressed in livery, attend to their needs, one holding a jug of drink and the other a tray of glasses. The painting captures the essence of the 17th century, with its intricate details of clothing, accessories, and the use of natural elements such as aquatic life. The warm, inviting atmosphere of the painting is further enhanced by the use of rich colors and the play of light and shadow. This painting is a testament to the pastime of the Danish aristocracy and the fashionable way of life during this era. It is a must-see for anyone interested in heritage art, fashion, or the history of Denmark.
