"Kaartspel" (Card Game) is a black and white depiction of a scene from everyday life in 19th-century Netherlands. Johannes Walter, a Dutch realist painter, captures a group of men playing cards at a table while a woman holds a young child in the background. The intimate setting and realistic details create a sense of everyday life in the artist's time. The artwork is held in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and is a testament to Walter's skillful portrayal of everyday life in 19th-century Dutch society.
