"Harlequin with Lute and Mask, " Brilliantly-Hued Midcentury Painting by Pamico

About the Item

Making liberal use of brilliant colors, dominated by grey-blue and deep pink, this painting depicts a seated harlequin/musician figure with a faint, knowing smile, contrasting with the mask of tragedy hanging on the wall to one side. The halequin's lute has been set aside for the moment and he seems quietly bemused and at peace. The painting by Miguel Pamico retains its original, stunning frame, painted in old gold and black.

Unlike Cadmus, Lear depicted nude or half-nude figures set in fantastic or exotic environments such as the circus, carnival, deserted beach, or Dali-esque setting. This richly-detailed watercolor, depicting a tall, lean male figure straddling a pole holding a Medieval banner...
