Carnival Clowns | Willem Duyster | 1620

The painting "Carnival Clowns" by Willem Duyster, painted in 1620, is a striking example of Baroque genre painting. It likely captures a scene of festivity and commotion that is typical of carnival celebrations. The performers in the painting are depicted wearing unsettling masks, which add a sense of mystery and intrigue to the scene. These masks would be exaggerated and grotesque, reflecting the traditional characters and the spirit of the carnival, where social norms are temporarily overturned.
