Product FAQ
Which Old Master painting is this based on?
Caravaggio's The Cardsharps, painted around 1595. The Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth has owned the original since 1987, which makes this a hometown parody in a way most Old Masters riffs are not.
What is actually on the table?
A hand of Uno cards, a Whataburger and a Topo Chico, arranged and lit with the seriousness a seventeenth-century painter would have given a silver goblet.
Why Uno instead of playing cards?
Because Uno is the modern American version of a game people cheat at. It was invented in 1971 by Merle Robbins, an Ohio barber, reportedly to settle a family argument over the rules of Crazy Eights — fitting company for a painting about a con.
Who painted this version?
Caya Crum, working in Texas. She paints the original and each print is made to order, one at a time.
Will this look like an original painting or a print?
Crum Art takes the scanning and photographing of original paintings seriously — we work to capture the texture of the canvas or paper the original was created on, so that texture shows through in the print. Combined with the cotton rag paper’s own subtle surface and the hand-signing, many customers say they cannot tell if it’s an original or a print. That’s intentional. These are not flat digital reproductions — they are art prints that carry the soul of the original.
What sizes does this print come in?
Our art prints are available in standard rectangle and square sizes. Rectangles: 8x10 unframed matted to 11x14, 11x14 unframed, 16x20, 18x24, and 24x36. Squares: 8x8 unframed matted to 12x12, 12x12 unframed, 16x16, 20x20, and 24x24. Each size ships ready to frame, making it easy to find the right fit for your wall.
How do I make a gallery wall with art prints?
Start with an anchor piece and build outward — many Crum Art prints are part of series designed to group together as a statement gallery wall, or hang individually as standalone pieces. Since every image is sized to fit standard frames, mixing sizes is easy: lay the arrangement out on the floor first, keep about two to three inches between frames, and center the whole grouping at eye level.
