About this work

A harlequin in a red jester's cap and diamond-patterned tights leans over a small table, offering a playing card to a striped cat while cups, a brass pitcher and fanned cards sit among the china. Beside him, a woman in a full red skirt and white blouse reclines with eyes lowered, one bare foot propped on a low stool. Two more spotted cats rest nearby, and red blooms and a stone bust punctuate the dense pink-green foliage behind them.

Saturated magenta foliage sets off the red and white costumes in warm, theatrical light with smooth academic finish. The playful card game and the woman's dreamy stillness give the scene a lightly mysterious, storybook air.
