Tric-trac Players in a Castle Garden
Esaias van de Velde made various depictions of merry companies in a garden. This is the only one with tric-trac players. This game was once considered to be gambling. This negative association is here enhanced by the jugs of alcohol in the foreground and the amorous couples. Just as in modern portrayals of casinos, such as in James Bond films, the women encourage the men immersed in the game.
