I picked up a stack of items from this old couple who are moving into an old peeps home.
I will be posting threads on a few pieces that I don't know much about.

First is this print. Btw, art is not my thing
I was told it came from an English castle many years ago. I was immediately drawn to it for some reason, maybe because i am a keen poker player?

I didn't pay much for it, but did find an old price sticker on the back for $750 (i know that does not mean much)
And in the print i found a date of 1764 (again may not mean alot)

Can anyone id the artist? and any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Looks like a print to me. Near 100%. Nice subject matter though. Only other poker prints I've seen are the dogs playing poker prints. Those are great!

Thanks guys, yeah definitely a print.
I have been informed it is a Josef Wagner-Hohenberg print.
Could still be worth a few coin if its an early print, not much but a small profit. Probably not really worth the effort to take out of the frame to check though, so I will stick it up on my wall.
