EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the elegant and enigmatic figure of Harlequin, also known as Prince de Sedan or Prince de Commercy, during the early years of the reign of King Louis XIV of France in the late 17th century. Dressed in the vibrant and intricately designed Harlequin costume, this prince was a popular character in the Commedia dell'Arte, a form of Italian theater that was widely adopted in Europe during this period. The prince's attire is a visual feast for the eyes, with its bold checkered pattern, colorful tights, and ornate accessories. The Harlequin costume was not only a symbol of the prince's status and wealth but also a reflection of the theatrical and artistic influences that shaped the French court during the time of Louis XIV. The early years of Louis XIV's reign, which began in 1643, were marked by a renewed interest in the arts and culture. The king himself was an avid patron of the arts and encouraged the development of grand palaces, gardens, and theaters. The prince's association with the Harlequin character may have been a reflection of the king's own interest in the arts and his support for the Commedia dell'Arte. Despite his theatrical persona, the prince was a respected member of the French nobility and held various titles and positions within the court. His appearance at the French court would have been a spectacle in itself, drawing the attention and admiration of the nobility and the public alike. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Prints Online collection, offers a glimpse into the opulence and intrigue of the French court during the reign of Louis XIV. The image not only showcases the prince's striking costume but also provides a window into the cultural and historical context of the time.
