About this work
A young performer stands in a diamond-patterned harlequin costume of red, cream, and olive patches, a wide black hat framing his face and a white ruffled collar at his neck. He holds a small monkey wearing a matching red jester's cap and jacket close to his chest, one leg propped on a low stool near a toy horse on wheels resting on the floor.
Loose, painterly strokes render the costume's diamonds with visible brushwork, while the mottled olive-brown backdrop dissolves into shadow around the figure. Warm light falls across the face and collar, picking out the crimson accents of the monkey's outfit and the boots, giving the scene a theatrical, intimate warmth.
