Pulcinella Costume Design - 18th-Century Commedia dell’Arte Character Art #1946408 (License: Personal Use)

This watercolor sketch by an unknown 18th-century artist portrays Pulcinella-a stock character from commedia dell’arte-wearing a loose white tunic and trousers adorned with green leaf motifs and silver trim, paired with a striped ruff cap and black leather shoes. He strides forward with a wooden baton in hand, his exaggerated facial expression capturing the character’s mischievous, satirical nature. The delicate brushwork and historical accuracy make it a valuable reference for theater historians and costume designers.
