Who does not know this mask, with his patched outfit and witty tongue? The first Harlequin we hear of is Alberto Naselli, from Bergamo, in 1572.
Harlequin is a character that suffers from his poverty, who wears a colorful patched costume, the patches probably remnants of richer costumes.
Displays an anarchic kind of behavior, is always hungry and without money, in modern times he could have been a hippie.
He's hungry, always, but he has all the necessary wit and creativity to get along, survive, take his satisfactions on the world and people that are constantly abusing him.
