"The House of Cards 2" is a notable painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, created in 1737. This work is one of several versions Chardin painted on the theme of card houses, reflecting his interest in depicting scenes of everyday life with a moralizing element. The painting portrays a young boy engrossed in the delicate task of building a house of cards, a subject that serves as a metaphor for the fragility and ephemeral nature of human endeavors.

Chardin's mastery in rendering textures and surfaces is evident in this work, where the softness of the boy's skin contrasts with the crispness of the playing cards and the solidity of the stone ledge. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a muted color palette that underscores the quiet concentration of the scene. The painting is a fine example of Chardin's contribution to the genre of still life and genre painting in the 18th century, demonstrating his ability to elevate ordinary subjects to the level of fine art through his exquisite technique and thoughtful composition.

"The House of Cards 2" is held in high regard for its technical excellence and its capacity to engage viewers in a contemplation of youth, focus, and the transient nature of success. It remains an important work within Chardin's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and cultural significance in the context of the Enlightenment period in France. The painting is part of a prestigious collection, often displayed in a prominent museum or gallery, where it is accessible to the public and continues to attract the admiration of art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
