Object history London, Noel Desenfans, 1802-1807: London, Skinner and Dyke, Desenfans sale, 16 Mar. 1802, lot 62 ('Salvator Rosa-A Landscape with Dice Players'. Descriptive Catalogue, no. 12: ÔIn a retired spot, on the fore-ground, a stone covered with a piece of drapery, serves two men, seated opposite to each other, as a dice board. Between them, towards the right, a soldier in a helmet and armour, is stooping to observe the game, in which he appears to have some interest; an officer, likewise covered with a helmet and breast-plate, is another spectator of the play, but it is easily observable that he has no interest whatever in it ... One of the players, who has already thrown his dice, is leaning forward over the stone, on which he fixes an ardent impatient look, while his adversary, half seated and half risen, is on the point of making his throw, which he is restrained from doing, by successive hopes and fears that are visibly traced in his countenance'). Handwritten note in copy of catalogue at The Hague, RKD: '2 3/4 h. 2 1/4'. £210.0 (bt in); London, Sir Francis Bourgeois, 1807-1811; Bourgeois Bequest, 1811.

Licensing[edit]

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1673, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
