Harlequin and Death | Konstantin Somov | 1907

"Harlequin and Death" (1907) by Konstantin Somov is a symbolist painting that contrasts the whimsical and the macabre. The composition features a harlequin in a brightly colored, geometric costume playfully gesturing, juxtaposed against the grim figure of Death, depicted as a skeleton draped in a dark, tear-patterned cloak. The background reveals a romantic couple embracing under a starry night sky, framed by lush trees. The artwork explores themes of life, love, and mortality with an elegant and theatrical aesthetic.
