Fricasso, Mezzetino en Franca Trippa 1668 - 1707

This etching, titled "Fricasso, Mezzetino en Franca Trippa," is from a series of prints by Dutch artist Anthonie de Winter, created between 1668 and 1707. De Winter is known for his comedic and theatrical representations of figures, often with exaggerated features and movements, seen here in the three Commedia dell'Arte characters depicted. The print captures the lighthearted and theatrical nature of this popular form of Italian street theatre, with each figure performing a characteristic action. The detailed etchings bring to life the characters' personalities and the humorous nature of their performance.
