A Friend in Need

Born in New York state in 1844, Cassius Marcellus Coolidge worked several odd jobs before he turned to painting. He is now most well known for his Dogs Playing Poker series, which has frequently been referenced in films, television shows, and beyond like Cheers, The Simpsons, Toy Story 4, and That '70s Show.

The most popular painting in this series is A Friend in Need, which was painted in 1903. It is a lot brighter than many of his other paintings, and it sets a more casual mood of friends playing poker. It is the most recognizable paintings of the entire series, and it is frequently a source of inspiration for TV shows and films because of its lighter spirit and sense of camaraderie.
