About this work
A jointed jester puppet dressed in a white and gold harlequin costume with bell-tipped cap and shoes sits propped on a wooden chest. Beside it hangs a bright orange costume patterned with yellow and red polka dots and ruffled white trim, and behind both a tall arched mirror faintly reflects the smiling face and curly hair of a young woman peeking into the scene.
Thick, energetic strokes of orange, red and gold build the draped fabric, while the puppet is picked out in cooler cream and pale yellow tones with small dabs of gold for its bells. The mirror's reflection is softer and hazier than the foreground objects, creating depth and a whimsical, theatrical stillness within the composition.
