Tim Liddy's Board Game Paintings

That's not a photograph of an old Battleship set, but a painting. St. Louis-based artist Tim Liddy makes strikingly realistic 1:1 scale depictions of old board games on sheets of copper. Jeffrey Hughes writes:

Based on the illustrated box lids of board games, Liddy has developed a subject that like Wittgenstein's assertion that language games point to the rule governed character of language, these games are reminders of the rules of life.
