"Canfield" is an etching by American artist Dwight Case Sturges (1874-1940). The print depicts an older man sitting at a table, seemingly engaged in a card game. His relaxed posture and the gentle smoke curling from his cigar suggests an intimate and casual moment. The subject matter of the artwork is likely inspired by the popular card game of the time, Canfield, which was known for its challenging and strategic gameplay. The artist's skilled use of line and shading gives the artwork a sense of realism, capturing the details of the man's features and the texture of his clothing. "Canfield" exemplifies the artist's mastery of printmaking and his ability to convey a sense of narrative through his artwork.
