The painting is a collage of fabrics and represents the digital synthesis of a photograph of Players of Cards by Bartolomeo Manfredi, kept in the Vasari Corridor of the Uffizi Gallery. The canvas was seriously damaged, making it unrecognizable, following a terrorist attack carried out by Cosa Nostra on the night between 26 and 27 May 1993 through the explosion of a car bomb in via dei Georgofili in Florence, near the historic Uffizi Gallery. 5 people also lost their lives in the attack, including two girls.
