(Restorations of maintenance) The melted horse (which falls to the ground) In the civilizations where the horse holds a great place, the children dash and by leaning on the croup of the animal manage successively to settle with straddle, with several on its back. In a bucolic setting, a group of young people play the "melted horse" game, under the astonished gaze of a mother and her little child. Multicolored field flowers in the foreground. The scene is "refreshed" by a fountain and a river watering a pretty green village. This theme was inspired by the children's games hanging after Michel Corneille, known as "des gobelins", painter and decorator of King Louis XIV.
