EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment of children's play in the early 20th century. Titled "Children's Play: Part of a Colin-Maillard" this illustration from a school book by French School artist Patrice Cartier takes us back to the carefree days of childhood. In this particular game, known as Colin-Maillard or blind man's bluff, one child is blindfolded while others try to avoid being caught. The engraving beautifully depicts the excitement and innocence of youth as they engage in this classic pastime. The image showcases the importance of imagination and creativity during playtime. It reminds us that even without modern gadgets or technology, children found joy in simple games that encouraged physical activity and social interaction. Set against a backdrop of France in the 1900s, we get a glimpse into the lives of school boys enjoying their recreation time. This snapshot transports us to an era where outdoor play was cherished and cherished memories were made. As we admire this vintage artwork, let it serve as a reminder to embrace our inner child and find delight in playful moments. Whether it be through traditional games or contemporary activities, may we never lose sight of the magic that comes with being young at heart.
