EDITORS COMMENTS
A Merry Christmas Tradition: The Queen of Sheba's Amusing Blindfolded Game, 1880s-1891 This delightful photograph captures the essence of an amusing Christmas game from the past, known as 'The Queen of Sheba.' Inspired by the ancient Queen of Sheba's legendary visit to King Solomon, this game was a playful reworking of the classic 'Blind Man's Bluff.' In this version, the man, blindfolded and wearing a veil, approaches the selected woman with the intention of kissing her. However, the women in the room take advantage of the man's blindfolded state and, in an unexpected twist, exchange the pretty girl with a not quite so pretty boy! The image portrays a lively scene filled with laughter and excitement. The man, dressed in a formal suit and wearing a large, ornate veil, is shown blindfolded and feeling his way through the room, while the women, all adorned in elegant Victorian dresses, eagerly anticipate their turn to play the prank. The Queen of Sheba's throne, decorated with festive greenery and red ribbons, adds to the festive atmosphere. This photograph, taken between 1880s and 1891, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past and the unique ways in which people found joy and amusement during the holiday season. The Queen of Sheba's game, with its historical roots and playful twist, is a reminder that Christmas traditions have always been an essential part of our collective memory and a source of fun and laughter for generations.
