The Veterans is a 1894 oil by Richard Creifelds, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Brooklyn Museum.
This painting depicts three men gathered around a table, engaged in a game of chess. The man on the right is dressed in a black suit, while the man on the left wears a red jacket. A third man stands behind them, observing the game. The chessboard is positioned on a wooden table, and the room's wallpaper features a light-colored floral pattern. The men's attire and the chessboard suggest a scene from the late 19th century. The artist's use of oil paint adds depth and texture to the scene.
