The story of Blind-Man's Buff
The Toledo painting is a companion piece to The See-Saw (1750), now in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid. It was bought with funds from the Libbey Endowment, a gift of the glassmaker Edward Libbey, founder of the Toledo Museum of Art. Fragonard painted a second picture of the same name around 1775-80, now in the Samuel H. Kress Collection.

Jean-Honoré Fragonard
Jean-Honoré Fragonard was a French painter and printmaker whose late Rococo manner was distinguished by remarkable facility, exuberance, and hedonism. One of the most prolific artists active in the last decades of the Ancien Régime, Fragonard produced more than 550 paintings, of which only five are dated. Among his most popular works are genre paintings conveying an atmosphere of intimacy and veiled eroticism.
