EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alma-Tadema's masterpiece, "Egyptian Chess Players" painted in 1865. The oil on panel artwork measures 40.5x55.5 cm and is currently held in a private collection. Previously known as "Egyptian game" this stunning piece of art takes us back to ancient Egypt. The painting depicts two chess players engrossed in their strategic battle, dressed in exquisite Egyptian attire. The female player dons an elaborate headdress and a beautiful orientalist costume, while the male player exudes Victorian charm with his pre-Raphaelite style clothing. Alma-Tadema's attention to detail is evident not only in the intricate costumes but also in the meticulously crafted interior setting. The ornate frame surrounding the painting adds an extra touch of elegance and enhances its overall aesthetic appeal. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork, we are transported to another time and place - a glimpse into ancient Egypt where board games like Senet were popular pastimes among nobles and commoners alike. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' high-quality reproduction, we can now enjoy this mesmerizing piece from the comfort of our own homes or offices. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate historical beauty, this print is sure to captivate your imagination and spark conversations about the rich cultural heritage of ancient Egypt.
