<p>Jose Victoriano Gonzalez-Perez, better known as Juan Gris, was a Spanish painter and sculptor. His works are closely connected to the emergence of an innovative artistic genre: Cubism.</p>
<p>Like many European artists before them, Cubists often depicted Harlequin, a stock character in the Italian commedia dell'arte, a form of masked theater dating back to the sixteenth century. Easily recognized in his checkered costume, Harlequin is a trickster with a tendency to act on whim and passion. For this reason, several modern artists adopted the character as an alter ego. Gris was particularly fond of the subject; he portrayed Harlequin in approximately forty works made between 1917 and 1925. In this painting, caricature softens the Cubist fracturing of the figure, while bands of light illuminate Harlequin's costume.</p>
