"The Poker Game" is a notable artwork by Cassius Marcellus Coolidge, an American artist best known for his series of paintings depicting dogs engaging in human activities, particularly playing poker. Created in 1894, this painting is part of Coolidge's iconic series that humorously anthropomorphizes dogs, showcasing them involved in a spirited poker game. The artwork stands as a quintessential example of Coolidge's unique blend of humor, anthropomorphism, and keen observation of human social interactions, translated into the animal world.

Coolidge's work, including "The Poker Game," gained popularity in the early 20th century when his series of sixteen dog paintings were commissioned by Brown & Bigelow to advertise cigars. These paintings, with "The Poker Game" being among them, have since become deeply ingrained in American pop culture, often referenced and parodied in various media forms. The painting depicts a scene filled with tension and excitement, as dogs of various breeds engage in a game of poker, exhibiting expressions and postures reminiscent of human players deeply absorbed in the game's strategy and stakes.

"The Poker Game" not only exemplifies Coolidge's artistic skill and imaginative vision but also reflects the artist's ability to infuse humor and satire into his works, making a commentary on human nature and societal norms through the lens of the animal kingdom. Over the years, Coolidge's poker-playing dogs have transcended their original advertising purpose, earning a place in art history as an example of early 20th-century American popular culture and kitsch art. The painting remains a beloved piece, celebrated for its whimsical take on the serious game of poker and its enduring appeal across generations.
