EDITORS COMMENTS
Basking in the ethereal glow of the moonlit night, Harlequin and Columbine gracefully dance in this image gracing the cover of the Pan Magazine in 1920. The man, dressed in the traditional Harlequin costume, dons a large, colorful mask with a long, curved nose and motley patterns, while the woman, as Columbine, wears an elegant, flowing dress adorned with delicate floral patterns. The stars twinkle brightly above, adding to the magical atmosphere of the scene. Harlequin and Columbine are iconic characters from the Commedia dell'Arte, a form of Italian theater that originated in the 16th century. Harlequin, a mischievous and agile character, is known for his quick wit and clever antics, while Columbine, the object of his affections, is a beautiful and graceful maiden. Their love story, filled with comedy and romance, has captivated audiences for centuries. This stunning photograph, with its historical significance and enchanting subject matter, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Commedia dell'Arte and the timeless beauty of the moonlit night. The image invites us to step back in time and immerse ourselves in the world of Harlequin and Columbine, a world of laughter, love, and the magic of the night.
