De dammer links op het werk van Edouard Vuillard is ook Tristan Bernard.

Marco Veronesi wrote:The Painter's Family

Painting Details:
In this work, painted in Issy-les-Moulineaux near Paris in 1911, Matisse depicted his sons Jean and Pierre, deep in a game of draughts, his daughter Marguerite and his wife Amelie. In itself a family portrait set in an interior is a simple and natural idea; it could have been intimate and emotional, but ever true to himself, the artist moved beyond mere intimacy to make the composition monumental and majestic. The structure of this large canvas is unusual. Matisse takes us into a world of whimsical patterns - now childishly naive, now of oriental complexity - which incorporate the draughts board, one of the most important elements in the painting. This patterning might have threatened the compositional unity of the work, but Matisse, as it were challenging the multiplicity of colors and lines he had created, managed to achieve clarity and logic through careful organization of the canvas. The figures play the central role in establishing the unity of the painting. It is they - as always in the artist's works shown with a clear and simple outline - who contain, concentrated within themselves, the most resonant color: the red of the boy's clothes, and black dress and the lemon-yellow book. Matisse has created a vast, tense world, the air vibrant with deep spiritual concentration, which seems almost tangible in the blue-black of the mirror over the fireplace.

In het verslag op Richard Przewozniak's http://damierlyonnais.free.fr/histoire_damophile.htm
uit het blad Progrès illustré de Lyon van 13 november 1898 staat over Sarah Bernhardt:

Le beau sexe ne dédaigne pas de se mesurer contre le sexe fort ÃƒÂ l'Académie Raspail, oÃƒÂ¹ il est en grand honneur. Nombre de dames soutiennent, en effet, avec succès, de brillantes luttes contre les maÃƒÂ®tres.

Madame Sarah Bernhardt intime

Ajoutons que parmi les ferventes du damier on compte l'illustre tragédienne Sarah Bernhardt, que notre dessinateur représente cherchant la solution d'un joli problème ÃƒÂ elle dédié par M. Le Goff. Nous sommes certains que la grande artiste en trouvera la solution.

In alle typezetjes van Arie van der Stoep staat wel een partijfragment van Y. le Goff tegen de damhistoricus Georges Balédent, maar jammer genoeg niet het probleem dat Le Goff aan Sarah Bernhardt heeft opgedragen en wat de grote actrice op de tekening probeert op te lossen. </center>
