This print shows a character from Commedia Dell’Arte. It’s a 17th-century work on paper by Bouché. This one stands out because the figure is drawn without its usual mask. Commedia Dell’Arte was a popular Italian street theater. The artist captured one of its classic characters here. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more prints from this collection.
