Man in harlekijnspak bij zijn moeder in de keuken 1839

"Man in harlequin costume by his mother in the kitchen" is a lithograph by French artist Paul Gavarni, created in 1839. The artwork depicts a man dressed in a brightly colored harlequin costume seated in a kitchen, looking at a stove with a pot on it. A woman, likely his mother, stands behind him, cooking. The scene offers a glimpse into the daily life of a family during Carnival, highlighting the contrast between the vibrant costume and the everyday setting. The lithograph's small size, 303 mm by 192 mm, makes it a charming and intimate portrayal of a moment in time. It is currently held in the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
