The creole game or flying ring game, early 19thc century
Fashionable people playing the flying ring game or the creole game. When the Parisians adopted the game, it had to be embellished: so the ring was covered with ribbon, then rosettes, then bells. Handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesangere's Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817. Fashionable people playing the flying ring game or the creole game.
