Comm. Dell Arte / Cassandre: A Shifted Character from the Commedia Dell'Arte of the Late 18th Century This print, titled "Comm. Dell Arte / Cassandre," offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Commedia Dell'Arte, a theatrical tradition that originated in Italy during the 16th century. The image features the character Cassandre, one of the most enigmatic figures in this improvisational and comedic theatrical form. Cassandre, also known as Cassandro or Cassandra, was a servant character, often depicted as a shifty and cunning figure. He was known for his quick wit and his ability to manipulate situations to his advantage. In the Commedia Dell'Arte, Cassandre was typically portrayed as a servant to the character Pantalone, a wealthy and often greedy merchant. The print, created in the late 1700s, showcases Cassandre in a moment of mischief, with a sly smile playing on his lips and a twinkle in his eye. His attire, consisting of a simple tunic and a wide-brimmed hat, is typical of the costumes worn by characters in the Commedia Dell'Arte. The history of the Commedia Dell'Arte is a fascinating one, with its roots in the streets and public squares of Italy. The tradition spread throughout Europe, and its influence can be seen in various forms of theater, literature, and art. The characters of the Commedia Dell'Arte, including Cassandre, continue to captivate audiences today, serving as a reminder of the rich and diverse cultural heritage that has shaped the world of theater. This print, with its intriguing image of Cassandre, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the streets came alive with the sounds and colors of the Commedia Dell'Arte. It is a reminder of the enduring power of theater to entertain, inspire, and connect us with the human experience.
