It’s been 6 months since the last antique French hidden object puzzle card went up, so figured it’s time to bring another one out. Some of you may remember the Three Rabbits , or the Pain De Sucre (yes, I can hear the groans already
but the thing to keep in mind is that these very old puzzle cards probably inspired the slew of hidden object games that have come out in the last couple years. However, since each card is a piece of art unto itself, and since the puzzle is usually cleverly worked in (usually with a few decoys too), I actually like them more.
So- Where is the Schoolboy?
You can click on the picture to see in high resolution.






























the ink sliding at the edge of the inkpot makes up a face. turn 90ยบ clockwise and the face is looking to the left
Just belowe the rim of the inkpot, you can see a boys face looking down…
I see a face in the dripping ink at the top of the well but I don’t know if that would be a “schoolboy”.
I think just above the table a child face in the left of the frame
Schoolboys face is under the rim of the ink bottles opening
His head is on the top of the ink bottle looking down towards the words on the bottle
He’s in the upper left quadrant, just above the ink well. He’s part of the table cloth.
the profile of the boy is beneath the lip of the inkwell.
I think some of you may have gotten the decoy…The actual face is in the ink sliding off the front of the inkpot
