COMMEDIA DELL'ARTE, L. Bloch, 1892

A playful depiction of the title performance/ span>

The actors gathered in the courtyard play with the exaggerated characters of their characters. The Harlequin looks down on the lady with obvious displeasure as the mischievous Pierrot has entered the painted canvas.

The scene skillfully combines the credibility of a literary source with the painter's clear clorist palette.
