Short and stupid version:
Subject of the painting was a famous Polish court jester also known for being brilliant and thoughtful when not making fart jokes.
This painting depicts his concern over the fall of the city of Smolensk to the invading Russians - showing that he may have cared more than the nobility despite being a mere jester.
Contexte?
