Blind man's buff, after Fragonard
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an exquisite 18th century oil painting that captures the essence of playful merriment and innocent joy. The scene portrays a group of children engaged in a classic game of blindman's buff, a popular pastime during the Rococo era. The painting is a charming reinterpretation of Jean Honore Fragonard's original work, "Le Colin-Maillard," which hangs in the Petit Palais Museum in Paris. In this rendition, a blindfolded boy stands in the center, his eyes covered by a canvas material, while a young woman playfully attempts to tickle him. Surrounding them are other children, some laughing and some eagerly waiting for their turn to play the game. The children are dressed in colorful clothing, adding to the vibrant and lively atmosphere of the painting. The setting is a beautiful garden, filled with lush greenery and blooming flowers, providing a picturesque backdrop for the playful scene. The painting captures the essence of the Rococo era, with its emphasis on leisure, fun, and the simple pleasures of life. The painting is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of France and the enduring appeal of traditional games and pastimes. It is a delightful reminder of the joy and innocence of childhood and the importance of play and recreation in our lives. The painting is a true masterpiece, full of color, charm, and character, and is a must-see for anyone interested in the art and culture of the 18th century.
