EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Jean Antoine Watteau's "Scapino, Commedia dell Arte" a red chalk drawing on paper. The artwork measures 21.5x17.2 cm and is housed in the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, Russia. The image depicts Scapino, a zanni character from the commedia dell arte tradition. Known for his tendency to flee from fights he initiates, Scapino's name derives from the English word "escape". He was created in the late 16th century and is often attributed to Niccol Barbieri, with actor Francesco Gabrielli popularizing him. In this sketch, Scapino is shown seated wearing an elaborate costume and holding a sword. His flamboyant dress reflects the rococo style of the era. The theatricality of his character shines through as he embodies both comedy and mischief. Watteau's attention to detail brings out every aspect of Scapino's role on stage - from his cap to his cloak - capturing the essence of this iconic commedia dell arte figure. This artwork exemplifies French artistic excellence and showcases Watteau's mastery at depicting theatrical characters. With its vibrant colors and expressive lines, this piece transports viewers into a world filled with laughter and entertainment. It serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of commedia dell arte performances throughout history.
