Blind man's buff Whole folio An emblematical miniature set in a garden hedged with red and white roses. The lover his eyes blindfolded is trying to catch one of the ladies who far from slipping away seems to be waiting for him. Another lady is trying to mislead him by tapping his shoulder but he does not let himself be distracted. Rather than choose blindly he will head straight to his true love even without the help of his eyes. Illustrating a love poem dedicated by Pierre Sala to Marguerite Builloud Image taken from Love Poems. Originally published in France; early 16th century.
