AFTER WILLIAM HOGARTH THE LADY'S LAST STAKE Oil on canvas 87.5 x 102.5cm (34¼ x 40¼ in.) In a Kentian frame The Lady's Last Stake was originally entitled Piquet: or Virtue in Danger and was one of Hogarth's last works. It depicts a domestic scene with a man and a woman who have been gambling on the card game piquet. The woman has lost her fortune to the army officer, and he offers to play one more game. If she wins, he will return her assets, including the money and jewels in his tricorne hat; but if she loses, she must accept him as her lover. She clasps the edge of a fire screen as she considers his offer and make a fateful decision: to be ruined financially, or morally.The details in the interior are rich in symbolism. These include a small dog, representing faithfulness, which is hiding under the table. There is a painting of a Penitent Magdalene over the fireplace. The mantelpiece bears a clock with the usual figure of Father Time replaced by Cupid , but still carrying a scythe. The cards are being burned in the fire.The painting is a copy of after the original in the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, Buffalo, New York.Provenance: The Hon. Claude J. Yorke, and thence by descent Literature: The Connoisseur, May 1965, p.6Illustrated: The Connoisseur, May 1965, p.6 Condition Report: Condition report available upon requestCondition Report Disclaimer
