This coffee-table art book is one-of-a-kind. From hundreds of
portrayals created over centuries by celebrated artists, such as
Cizanne, Picasso, Munch, Leger, de la Tour, Remington, and Neiman,
the best 120 were chosen to appear in this provocative visual
documentation of the evolution of gambling. Much more than a
compilation of subject-specific art, The Art of Gambling is a
scholarly look at the history of gaming. Each image is accompanied
by a facing page of text, providing readers with a thumbnail sketch
of the artist, then zeroing in on the image itself. The renderings,
as seen through the artist's eye and preserved on canvas or in
stone, serve as a form of "photographic" chronicling that weaves a
history of gambling through the ages - for the benefit of art
lovers and gambling enthusiasts alike.
