I have many fond memories of my time at my local Renaissance Faire! As I'm planning a visit this summer in a few costumes, I've found myself thinking of my time on the cast and costuming for Faire, which began exactly a decade ago, in 2009. I had always been drawn to the theatrical and fantasy element of Ren faire, and I found a lot of footing in my costuming/sewing/shop managing journey in my five years at the @bristolrenaissance Faire. This picture was a character of my own design; Buttons! Where I used a heck of a lot of extra buttons and fabric scraps in the shop to make a bit of a chaotic, but lovable scamp in search for a husband. One thing I love about good Faires is that there is something for everyone. Shopping, playing with the fae, good food, dress up, fun shows, booze, arts and crafts or historical representations; Faire folks want to include everyone in whatever they like! I will always enjoy when costuming is used to connect to all audience members; it's essentially the basis of everything I want to keep doing. That all being said, I'll see myself to the nearest pub, thank you! . . . . . #renaissancefestival #bristolrenaissancefaire #commediadellarte #renfaire

18th century dabbing?! . #Repost @mfaboston ・・・ Masked, brightly costumed and elaborately posed, these lively figures represent characters from the commedia dell’arte, a theatrical form popular across Europe in the 18th century. A typical performance featured stock characters, recognizable through their distinctive costumes, accents, and gestures, acting out storylines with improvised dialogue. . . Pictured: "The Doctor, Harlequin and Colombine" (about 1750, Capodimonte Manufactory), on view in "Casanova's Europe: Art, Pleasure, and Power in the 18th Century." . . . #mfaboston #dabbing #commediadellarte #harlequin #18thcentury #decorativearts #decorativeart #dancechallenge #dancefloor #getdown #porcelain #porzellan #ceramic #ceramique #keramic #capodimonte

For today's #GeorgianJanuary theme of #colorful - you can't get much more colorful than a commedia dell'arte harlequin costume! This is a portrait of the English actress Hester Booth (1680-1773). From the V&A website: . "Hester Booth was just 16 years old when she made her debut at Drury Lane theatre on 28 February 1706. Her speciality was the Harlequin dance and she was so popular that she had her picture painted on snuffbox lids. Harlequin, a character from the Italian commedia dell’arte was a hugely popular figure, a comic, clever servant who could manipulate a situation to his (or her) advantage. Harlequins wore costumes with brightly coloured patches that later became diamond shaped....In this picture Hester is portrayed as a female Harlequin. Usually Harlequin was a male servant but female Harlequins appear in France from about 1695. In her hand is the slap stick. This was Harlequin’s trademark magic bat, used for beating people in a comedy chase. It was also used to magically transform the scenery by hitting hinged flaps. ‘Slapstick’ comedy, the physical, buffooning type of humour, takes its name from Harlequin’s bat." . #Detail, "Hester Booth as a Female Harlequin" by John Ellys, England, c1722-25, @vamuseum #vamuseum #johnellys #englishart #englishartist #hesterbooth #englishactress #georgianactress #georgiantheatre #portrait #portaitofanactress #gorgeousgeorgians #18thcentury #art #harlequin #commediadellarte #arthistory #historyofart #theatrehistory #artlovers #heartart @dames_a_la_mode
