Named after the Bergamasque mask, Arlecchino is a lively, colourful work. Arlecchino (Harlequin), a key figure in commedia dell’arte since the 16th century, is a clever, mischievous servant known for wit, agility, and playfulness.

This dual visibility allows the viewer to fully appreciate the depth, complexity, and technical brilliance of each work.

This striking Fenice features two contrasting faces in distinct colors, creating a dynamic visual dialogue that draws the eye.
