A wonderful no-nonsense scene of two retired men playing backgammon in the park. This scene is very much in the manner of the famous painting by Worth Brehm (1883 - 1928) covering a similar subject.
The painting is signed Craig lower left for Craig Nelson (b. 1947), an accomplished artist in both commercial and fine art. From our appraiser:
"Nelson serves as Executive Director of Fine Art at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco and is a Signature Member of the California Art Club and the Portrait Society of America."

Excellent - for the painting. The frame has losses in each of the corners - looks like a moving accident.
