Inspired by a famous early work by Caravaggio, "Les tricheurs", the painter's painting represents four characters. Three are playing cards. An accomplice indicates to the young cheater the game of the opposing party. Here, the work has four characters and not the three in the famous painting. The transposition places the action in a café of our time. A graffiti, "Au tripot", which we see upside down on the window marks contemporaneity.
