Arlecchino πŸ’—πŸ’œπŸ”ΆπŸ”· πŸŽ­πŸ”·πŸ”ΆπŸ’œπŸ’—

The Harlequin jacket is finally finished. This one was really tricky as the silk has a woven embroidered surface. So it frays. A lot. Perhaps I’ll allow myself to work with an easier fabric next. Anyhow what do you think of Tenzin as Harlequin??

 

The Harlequin is characterized by his chequered costume. His role is that of a light-hearted, nimble, and astute servant, often acting to thwart the plans of his master, and pursuing his own love interest, Columbina, with wit and resourcefulness, often competing with the sterner and melancholic Pierrot. He later develops into a prototype of the romantic hero. Harlequin inherits his physical agility and his trickster qualities, as well as his name, from a mischievous "devil" character in medieval passion plays.
