Blind Columbine Crinoline Harlequin Meeting Raised Stall Sunshade 1923
EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, dated 1923, captures the whimsical charm of a bygone era with its depiction of Harlequin, Columbine, and a woman engaged in an animated conversation outside a quaint shop. The Harlequin, a character known for his colorful costume, mask, and mischievous antics, is shown in his traditional attire complete with a crinoline skirt, bells, and a mask. Columbine, his lover and frequent companion, is dressed in a flowing, floral gown, her arms raised in excitement as she points to an array of flowers and fruits displayed on the shop stall. A third woman, dressed in a simple, modern dress, looks on with a book in hand, seemingly intrigued by the scene unfolding before her. The sunshade above the shop window casts a warm, dappled light on the trio, adding to the idyllic atmosphere. The shopkeeper, not visible in this image, likely sells a variety of goods, from flowers and fruits to books and other curiosities. This illustration offers a delightful glimpse into the rich history of the 1920s, a time of change and enchantment, when such encounters could still be found on the streets of bustling towns and cities.
