Blind Man's Buff / Girls, 1889 - A Delightful Scene of Innocent Amusement among Victorian Girls This photograph, taken in the year 1889, depicts a delightful scene of blindfolded girls engaging in a classic game of Blind Man's Buff. The girls, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, are seen playfully laughing and giggling as they attempt to tag the girl designated as 'it,' who is blindfolded and trying to locate her companions. The sense of joy and camaraderie is palpable in this historical image. The girls in the photograph wear beautiful sashes adorning their waists, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. Their dresses, with their high collars and long sleeves, are typical of the fashion of the time. The girls' hair is styled in neat braids or ringlets, reflecting the meticulous attention to grooming that was a hallmark of the Victorian era. Blind Man's Buff, also known as Blindfolded Tag, is an ancient game that has been played for centuries. The game involves one person being blindfolded while the others hide and try to avoid being tagged. This game, which encourages physical activity, problem-solving skills, and social interaction, was a popular pastime among children during the Victorian era. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, allowing us to witness a moment of innocent amusement and joy among a group of Victorian girls. The image is a reminder of the universality of play and the importance of cherishing moments of happiness and camaraderie, regardless of the era in which we live.
