Blindman's Buff: A Timeless Edwardian Children's Game as Illustrated by Charles Robinson in 1906 This image, titled "Blindman's Buff," transports us back to an Edwardian era children's party, where the simple joy of a game comes alive in full swing. The photograph, created by the talented illustrator Charles Robinson in 1906, captures the essence of the popular party game that has been enjoyed by children for generations. Blindman's Buff, also known as Blindman's Bluff, is a classic game of hide-and-seek with a twist. One child is blindfolded and given the task of finding the others, who must avoid being tagged by dodging and hiding. In this illustration, we see several children, both boys and girls, dressed in their Sunday best, excitedly participating in the game. The boys wear collared shirts and short pants, while the girls don elegant dresses and bonnets. The blindfolded child, with outstretched arms, walks cautiously, trying to locate the hidden children. The children, in turn, dodge and weave, their laughter echoing through the room. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation, excitement, and pure joy. This charming illustration, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the simple pleasures of childhood and the enduring appeal of a good game. The image is a testament to the power of play and the bonding experience it brings, making it a cherished piece of history that continues to resonate with us today.
