Image description

On Easter three generations have gathered to play egg tapping. A game that dates back to the Middle Ages in Europe, it is played with hard-boiled eggs in which opponents tap eggs to see whose breaks first. Whoever’s egg does not crack is the winner. In this painting the excitement on the children’s faces as they watch their grandparents tap eggs is palpable, with the exception of the young girl in the lower left whose egg has already cracked, knocking her out of the game.
