Two individuals engage in a spirited activity reminiscent of Blind Man's Buff, an ancient pastime that has transcended generations. This particular scene is captured with intricate detail by the talented illuminator Jehan de Grise in the Romance of Alexander, dating back to c1340. The image showcases the essence of daily life during medieval times, shedding light on the leisurely pursuits and recreational activities enjoyed by men of that era. The Flemish influence is evident through its artistic style and attention to minute details.
