EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork titled "Grammatica - The Gamblers" by Antiveduto Grammatica, a talented follower of Caravaggio. The painting is housed in Apsley House, London and is also known as "Card Players". This particular piece was captured at Vitoria in 1813 from the Spanish Royal Collection. The artist's mastery of light and shadow, reminiscent of Caravaggio's style, is evident in this stunning composition. The scene depicts a group of gamblers engrossed in their game, their expressions filled with intensity and anticipation. Each character is meticulously portrayed with intricate details that bring them to life. Originally catalogued as a work by Caravaggio himself, it has since been attributed to Grammatica due to its distinctive characteristics. This revelation adds another layer of intrigue to an already fascinating piece. Patricia Payne's expert photography beautifully captures the essence and richness of this historic artwork. Through her lens, we are able to appreciate every brushstroke and nuance that makes this painting so remarkable. This print serves as a testament to both the talent of Grammatica and the skillful eye of Patricia Payne. It allows us to bring home a piece of art history while immersing ourselves in the world created by these masterful artists.
