Master of the Games

Master of the Games is a Dutch Golden Age artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Detroit Institute of Arts.

This anonymous Flemish painter worked in Paris around 1650, rubbing shoulders with the Le Nain brothers. Their only signed work, A Peasant Family, shows a simple meal lit by a single window, the faces worn but calm. The room’s rough plaster and wooden spoon tell a quiet story of daily life. Step inside this scene and look for the single lit candle on the table.
