The Middle Ages (10) : Court jester

This series is an attempt to illustrate how life was going on in the Middle Ages.

Each castle had a court jester whose unrewarding task it was to please and entertain the Lord and Lady of the castle.

Photographed at medieval festival of castle Reinhardstein (Robertville, Belgium).

great impression of the middle ages! beautiful shot with the juggler seeming so at ease and relaxed while having to perform on stilts and juggle the pins… beautiful "sunny mood", too – and i'd die for a pair of those pants to cover my looong shady legs ; )))… greetings, sabine.

Oh what a job! I suppose in those days watching the jester fall off his stelts would also be half funny :-))
Thank goodness for Laurel and Hardy!
Good and interesting shot

Again, good documentation of medievel life. He is so tall I think you nearly needed a wide angle lense.
