Most characters wore masks, a tradition deriving from ancient Roman comedies.<\/p>\n<p>Usually wears a headdress as part of his costume. The character was well-known enough in Italy that &#8216;coviello&#8217; became a term for a boastful idiot. His actual character can be variable, and many traditional scenarios and plays portray him as quite smart. His primary qualities are conceit and bluntness \u2014 he never fears to call a spade a spade.<br \/>\nCoviello makes a lot of grimaces, dances, and plays mandolin or guitar. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/antiqueref.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Meissen-S123-engraving.jpeg\"><br \/>\n         <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/antiqueref.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Meissen-S123-engraving.jpeg\"\n         width=655\" height=\"1000\"> <\/a><\/br><\/p>\n"},"caption":{"rendered":"<p>S123 &#8211; Coviello<\/p>\n"},"alt_text":"Meissen COMMEDIA DELL'ARTE figure Coviello.
