Four Commedia dell'Arte Figures: Harlequin "en femme," Mezzetin(?), Scaramouche, and Harlequin
The image shows four sketches of individuals standing on a flat surface. The first person is wearing flowing garments with a large headdress, the next person has a hunched posture and is dressed in a long-sleeved shirt and loose pants, the third person is wearing a long coat and hat, and the fourth person is depicted in a patterned outfit and head covering while holding sticks or batons. The background is plain with no additional details. There is a Roman numeral 'XV' in the upper left corner and the word 'Gillot' in the lower right corner.
