EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a world of Victorian-era entertainment. The image showcases a lively parlour game called "Blind Man's Buff" which was enjoyed by families during this period. Published in Paris in 1859, this engraving from L'Univers Illustre captures the essence of old-fashioned fun. In the picture, we see a group of people gathered in a beautifully decorated parlour, eagerly engaging in the game. One person stands blindfolded at the center while others surround them with excitement and anticipation. The blindfolded individual must rely solely on their senses to catch or tag one of their fellow players. The illustration exudes historical charm and offers us a glimpse into leisurely pastimes cherished by our ancestors. It serves as an archival treasure that reminds us of simpler times when families found joy through interactive games rather than digital distractions. Ken Welsh's expertise shines through as he masterfully preserves this piece of history for generations to come. This vintage print is not only visually appealing but also holds immense cultural value, allowing us to appreciate how entertainment has evolved over time. Whether displayed within your home or used for educational purposes, this enchanting image transports you back to an era where parlor games like Blind Man's Buff brought families together for hours of laughter-filled amusement.
