EDITORS COMMENTS
In this handcolored lithograph, a medieval tutor instructs a young woman in the art of playing cup and ball, an ancient game believed to date back to the Roman Empire. The scene takes place within the grandiose confines of a castle, with the sun casting a warm, golden glow through an ornate window. The tutor, dressed in authentic medieval attire, wears a flowing robe and a pointed hat adorned with a tassel. His expression is patient and focused, as he guides the young woman's hand, who is clad in a flowing gown and a delicate veil. The game of cup and ball consists of a small, hollowed-out cup and a solid ball. The objective is to throw the ball into the cup, which is held upside down in the other hand. The young woman in the print appears to be making a good attempt, with her eyes fixed intently on the ball. A lute, a popular musical instrument during the Middle Ages, lies nearby, adding to the atmospheric ambiance of the scene. Despite the anachronistic presence of the lute, which was not introduced to England until the Renaissance period, the overall depiction of the scene is historically accurate. The print is based on an illustration by J. E. Rogers, taken from Francis Cowley Burnand's "Present Pastimes of Merrie England," published in London in 1873. This intriguing snapshot of medieval life offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of chivalry, romance, and simple pleasures.
