EDITORS COMMENTS
an engaging and lively 18th century game as depicted in this painting by Nicolas Lancret, offers a glimpse into the pastime and entertainment of the era. The lithograph, taken from Henry Rene Allemagne's comprehensive collection "Sports and Games of Skill" (Sports et Jeux d'Adresse), published by Librairie Hachette in Paris in 1903, beautifully preserves the essence of this intriguing game. The painting, filled with vibrant colors and dynamic energy, showcases a group of young people playing "Four Corners," a variant of tag, in an open courtyard. Four young women and men are involved in the game, each trying to tag the other three before being tagged themselves. The game's objective is to reach one of the four corners of the playing area without being tagged by the others. The players' expressions and body language convey the excitement and fun that comes with the game. The painting's intricate details, such as the ornate clothing and the decorative elements in the background, further enhance the overall appeal of the image. The lithograph, as a reproduction of the original painting, serves as a testament to the rich history of recreational activities during the 18th century. "Four Corners" not only provides a glimpse into the past but also showcases the joy and camaraderie that comes with engaging in a simple yet entertaining game. This image is a must-have for anyone interested in history, art, or the study of pastimes and leisure activities.
