Polichinelle coupable is a 1740 oil by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, a Rococo painting work, held at Department of Paintings of the Louvre.
This painting depicts a group of men in white attire, gathered in an outdoor setting. They are dressed in long-sleeved shirts, pants, and hats, with some wearing aprons. The men are engaged in various activities, such as leaning against a wall, sitting on the ground, or standing. The scene is set against a backdrop of a wall and a distant landscape. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the figures, while the impasto technique adds texture to the painting. The overall effect is one of dynamic energy and movement. The painting is held at the Louvre Museum, where it can be viewed alongside other works by Giovanni Battista Tiepolo.
Giovanni Battista Tiepolo, also known as Giambattista Tiepolo, was an Italian painter and printmaker from the Republic of Venice who painted in the Rococo style, considered an important member of the 18th-century Venetian school.
