Fashionable people playing the memory game
Fashionable people playing the memory game of the gentle knight. Players who have made errors have to wear paper horns in their hair. At the beginning, everyone is a gentle knight. But with every word changed or omitted from a long formula, the player has to add a paper horn to his head, and becomes a knight cuckold. Handcoloured engraving by Gatine from Pierre de la Mesangere's Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817. Fashionable people playing the memory game of the gentle knight.
