EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Game of Blind Mans Bluff" created by Charles-Nicolas Cochin in 1739. Cochin, a skilled printmaker, was renowned for reproducing and popularizing the works of other artists through printed form. In this particular piece, he masterfully translates Nicolas Lancret's original painting with a free and spontaneous style of etching. The lighthearted quality captured in Cochin's interpretation perfectly suits the bucolic setting and fete champetre depicted in the artwork. Fete champetre refers to a festive outdoor party that was particularly enjoyed by members of the French aristocracy during that era. One cannot help but be enchanted by the fashionable garden's rococo balustrade featured in the image. Its cascading arrangement of nude statues evokes memories of Boucher's magnificent fountain designs found nearby. This 18th-century masterpiece resonates with French heritage as it embodies both artistic excellence and cultural significance. The print serves as a testament to Cochin's talent as well as his dedication to preserving and disseminating art from this period. Displayed at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate not only Cochin's craftsmanship but also Lancret's original vision. It is truly a treasure worth cherishing for its historical value and aesthetic allure.
