A great conversation piece you will treasure.

Subject 17th century scene of a French Royal court the focal point are the 2 seated Gentleman playing Chess around a lavish red fabric draped over a table.

On either side of the Chess players are courtiers, the adviser on the right dressed in a military blue cloak wearing fashionable jackboots with spurs, his posture is bowing in a dignified courtesy to his Majestry whilst in conversation with him offering advice on his next move.

Over to the left side a courtier who is holding his hat is paused in thought, standing by the seated Noble gentleman dressed in blue who's hand is hovering over the Chess board about to make his next significant move.
