Balthasar Klossowski de Rola, known as Balthus, was a Polish-French modern artist, known for his erotically-charged images of pubescent girls, but also for the refined, dreamlike quality of his imagery. Balthus's work demonstrates a commitment to classical painting while applying those techniques upon subject matter that reflects the concerns of the modern era in a highly restrained yet nonetheless often charged manner, revealing signs of sexuality, social transgression and anomie.

About El juego de cartas (The Card Game)
“El juego de cartas (The Card Game)” painted by the famous artist Balthus is a classic example of Balthus’ style of portrayal of innocent subject matter with a subtle hint of sensuality. The posture of the boy indicates an uncertain advance whereas the posture of the girl is expectant, amused but restrained. In Balthus’ paintings girls are queens and are therefore always portrayed as the winners. Although in the present painting the boy is prepared to cheat in order to win, the girl’s veiled smile shows that once again the norms governing Balthus’ world will prevail and she will be the winner in the end.About the Canvas Prints
