EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and lively print captures a delightful scene from Old Nuremberg's customs and practices in games and songs. Titled "Two Jesters Playing with Children" this image showcases the playful interaction between two jesters adorned in colorful, striped costumes, and a group of joyous children. The jester on the left can be seen holding a padded baton, ready to engage in a friendly game with one of the children. The other jester on the right is captivatingly dressed as well, complete with bells that add an element of whimsy to his outfit. Their medieval-inspired attire transports us back to an era where fancy dress was not only reserved for special occasions but also for everyday play. As these jesters interact with the children, their infectious laughter fills the air. The atmosphere is filled with excitement and anticipation as everyone eagerly participates in this age-old tradition of play acting. It is evident that these jesters are skilled entertainers who bring joy to both young and old alike. This color lithograph was republished in 1831 but depicts customs and practices dating back even further - possibly to the 14th or 15th century. Preserved within a private collection, this piece offers us a glimpse into history while reminding us of the timeless nature of games, laughter, and camaraderie among people across generations.
