EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic and mischievous figure of Harlequin, brought to life by the talented Thomas Eller. Harlequin is a cherished character from the Commedia dell'Arte tradition, a form of improvisational theatre that originated in Italy during the 16th century. The masked Harlequin, with his distinctive diamond-patterned costume and colourful cap, is a symbol of wit, agility, and mischief. Thomas Eller, an accomplished actor and performer, masterfully embodies the essence of Harlequin in this historical image. His expressive face, framed by the traditional Harlequin mask, exudes a playful and mischievous energy. The intricate details of his costume, from the diamond pattern on his tunic to the bells on his cap, add to the allure of this iconic character. The Commedia dell'Arte was a popular form of theatre that spread throughout Europe, and Harlequin became a beloved figure in many cultures. The improvisational nature of the performances allowed for endless variations and adaptations of the character, but the essence of Harlequin remained the same - a trickster, a jester, and a lover. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of Harlequin and the Commedia dell'Arte tradition. It transports us back in time to the world of masked performances, where laughter and joy were the order of the day. Thomas Eller's portrayal of Harlequin is a reminder of the power of theatre to transport us to other worlds and to bring joy and wonder to our lives.
