"El Jugador (Gambler)" is a woodcut print created by Mexican artist José Guadalupe Posada in 1942. Posada was known for his satirical and often macabre illustrations, and this work is no exception. Depicting a man dressed in a suit and a long beard, his mouth wide open, falling from a platform as playing cards rain down around him. The work's exaggerated features and dark humor are characteristic of Posada's style.
