EDITORS COMMENTS
Regency party-goers immerse themselves in the lively parlour game of The Little Man Lives On, captured in this lithograph from 1906. Assembled in a grand salon adorned with exquisite furnishings and chandeliers, these elegant men and women engage in a spirited competition that tests their luck and wit. The objective of the game is simple yet thrilling: participants must pass around a lit match while reciting the phrase "Le petit bon homme vit encore" (The little man lives on). Each player anxiously awaits their turn to determine whether fortune will smile upon them or leave them disappointed. With every passing moment, tension fills the air as they contemplate whether the flame will extinguish before reaching their hands. This artwork transports us back to an era where conversation flowed freely amidst laughter and camaraderie. Amidst discussions about politics, fashion, and society gossip, these sophisticated individuals find respite from daily routines through leisurely pursuits like this parlor game. Small talk turns into animated chatter as players confer with one another on strategies for keeping the match alive. Recreations et Passe-Temps by Henry Rene d'Allemagne captures not only the essence of Regency-era entertainment but also serves as a reminder of how people sought enjoyment during times past. This lithograph stands as both an artistic masterpiece and a testament to human ingenuity when it comes to finding amusement within our spare time.
