"The Card Players" is a series of oil paintings by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Cézanne painted during Cézanne's final period in the early 1890s. The series is considered by critics to be amongst his most important and complex works. Comprising five paintings of different sizes, the series depicts Provençal peasants immersed in smoking and playing cards. The players are portrayed with a solemn intensity, absorbed in their game, representing a thematic departure from the boisterous characters typically found in card-playing scenes of the era.

The paintings vary in size, the number of players, and the setting in which the game takes place. The largest version, and perhaps the most famous, is housed at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris and features a table with four players. The other versions, with differing compositions, are displayed in prestigious art institutions worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the Courtauld Institute of Art in London, the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and a private collection.

Cézanne's approach to these works reflects his developing style, characterized by a reduction to the essential forms, a departure from the traditional perspective, and a focus on the interplay of color and light. The Card Players series has been celebrated for its profound influence on the development of modern art, particularly for the way it prefigures the radical simplification of form and the abstraction that would become hallmarks of 20th-century art. The paintings have been extensively studied for their compositional elements, use of color, and the unique manner in which they convey the psychological intensity of the subjects.

The series has also been the subject of extensive art historical research and analysis, with scholars exploring the social and cultural context of the scenes depicted, as well as Cézanne's artistic process and the evolution of his style. The Card Players hold a significant place in the oeuvre of Cézanne and continue to be admired for their technical mastery and their pivotal role in the transition from 19th-century art to the modernist movements of the 20th century.
