Casino Poker For Beginners
His Station and Four Aces by Cassius M. Coolidge, 1903.
Dogs Playing Poker, by Cassius Marcellus Coolidge, refers collectively to an 1894 painting, a 1903 series of sixteen oil paintings commissioned by Brown & Bigelow to advertise cigars, and a 1910 painting.[1] All eighteen paintings in the overall series feature anthropomorphized dogs, but the eleven in which dogs are seated around a card table have become well known in the United States as examples of kitsch art in home decoration. Depictions and reenactments of the series have appeared in many films, television shows, theater productions, and other popular culture art forms.
Critic Annette Ferrara has described Dogs Playing Poker as 'indelibly burned into .. the American collective-schlock subconscious .. through incessant reproduction on all manner of pop ephemera'.[2]
The first painting, Coolidge's 1894 Poker Game, realized $658,000 at a Sotheby's New York sale on 18 November 2015.[3]
