The Cardsharps defines early work from the famous painter Caravaggio. He's so well-known that his first name (Michelangelo) isn't necessary to identify him. Due to another well known painter with that same name, it might even cause more confusion. Caravaggio created this painting when he was broke and unknown.
Then he chanced upon rich gambler Cardinal de Monte, who loved this piece. It was a lucky draw for the young painter. He'd snagged himself an influential and rich patron. Caravaggio became quite a worthy investment. The Cardsharps shows why. This masterpiece tells a fun and familiar story in an innovative way for 1594.
