"Playing At Back Gammon. Maniere Noire Par Brookshaw" is an artwork attributed to David The Elder Teniers, a prominent Flemish Baroque painter known for his genre scenes, landscapes, and depictions of peasant life. This particular piece is a mezzotint, a printmaking process that allows for the creation of images with rich tonal variations and deep contrasts. The term "Maniere Noire" refers to the mezzotint technique, which was popularized in the 17th century and involves roughening a metal plate to hold ink and produce a range of tones from black to white.

David The Elder Teniers (1582–1649) was a significant figure in the Flemish art scene, and his works often depicted everyday activities with a keen eye for detail and a touch of humor. His influence extended to his son, David Teniers the Younger, who also became a renowned painter. The elder Teniers' works are characterized by their lively compositions, meticulous attention to detail, and the ability to capture the essence of 17th-century Flemish life.

"Playing At Back Gammon" captures a moment of leisure, depicting individuals engaged in a game of backgammon, a popular pastime of the era. The scene is likely set in a tavern or a domestic interior, common settings for Teniers' genre paintings. The composition reflects Teniers' skill in rendering human expressions and interactions, providing a glimpse into the social customs and daily life of his time.

The mezzotint was executed by Richard Brookshaw, an 18th-century British engraver known for his skill in the maniere noire technique. Brookshaw's interpretation of Teniers' work demonstrates the enduring appeal of the Flemish master's scenes and the technical prowess required to translate such detailed paintings into prints.

This artwork not only exemplifies the collaborative nature of art production in the Baroque period but also highlights the cross-cultural appreciation and adaptation of artistic techniques and themes. "Playing At Back Gammon. Maniere Noire Par Brookshaw" stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of David The Elder Teniers and the intricate art of mezzotint engraving.
