Description In the Nationalmuseum, Stockholm; 83 cm x 56 cm. Description in the book Painters and Public Life in Eighteenth-Century Paris (Crow, Thomas E.; Yale University Press, 1985): "A large, unfinished drawing by Claude Gillot now in Stockholm illustrates precisely the newly mixed theatrical genre that resulted (Plate 14): while an acrobat leaps several feet above the tightrope, various actors from the Italian comedy gather below; Harlequin climbs the standard that supports the rope, one pretends to be able to catch a falling performer in his hat."
