“The Master of the Gamblers”: Omnia Vincit Amor

Master_of_the_Gamblers_-_Omnia_vincit_amorThe "Master of the Gamblers" is how art historians, curators, and auctioneers refer to the 17th-century Italian painter (Rome, maybe Naples), otherwise unnamed, who painted, in the main, gamblers playing cards and shooting dice. "Omnia Vincit Amor" ("Love  Conquers All") is unusual among his works. — DL
