1. Stańczyk - Jan Matejko (1862) "The sad clown with a painted frown is a cultural trope today, but this crimson-clad harlequin is different. Stańczyk, the renowned court jester of the Polish Renaissance sits slumped into an elegant chair that looks much too large for his small frame. His legs are kicked out and immobile, his hands clasped, his eyes glazed and distant. His three-pointed hood droops, wrinkled, and his jester’s marotte, the scepter topped with a miniature caricature of its owner, lies discarded on the floor. To his side, an unfolded letter is partially hidden under a handkerchief, and in the room behind him uproarious party-goers dance and flirt. Our red jester is a man apart, alone and haunted."
