EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "Blind Man's Bluff" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of ancient Russia. Created by renowned artist Konstantin Yegorovich Makovsky (1839-1915), this piece is part of a private collection and showcases his mastery in capturing the essence of domestic life during the Muscovy era. The scene depicted in this artwork takes us back to a time when children's games were simple yet filled with joy. Set against the backdrop of an intricately designed traditional Russian interior, we witness a family portrait that exudes tenderness and warmth. The boyarishnya, or noblewoman, clad in exquisite Russian dress and adorned with a kokoshnik headdress, engages in playful banter with her child. Makovsky skillfully portrays the timeless bond between mother and child as they participate in this beloved game. The painting reflects not only their love but also highlights elements of folklore and tradition prevalent during those times. Through meticulous brushstrokes on canvas using oil paints, Makovsky captures every intricate detail – from the delicate embroidery on their clothing to the architectural beauty reminiscent of ancient Moscow principality. This artwork transports us to an era where luck was believed to play its role amidst everyday life. As we admire this fine art image, we are reminded that even centuries ago, family scenes like these held immense significance within society. They serve as windows into
