About this work
A man dressed as a harlequin wears a black felt hat and a jacket patterned in red, blue, green, and cream diamonds over a black cape-like collar and bow tie. He sits leaning forward, holding a pair of white gloves in one hand and a thin cane across his lap, his rouged cheeks and pale face turned toward the viewer.
The costume's bold geometric diamonds stand out crisply against a somber, near-monochrome maroon background, painted in flat, saturated blocks of color. Brushwork on the face is smoother and more traditionally modeled than the graphic patterning of the jacket, lending the figure a theatrical, faintly melancholic presence.
