"Odpoczynek Arlekina" (English: "Harlequin's Rest") is a notable painting by Marceli Ślodziński, who is more commonly known by his pseudonym Marcel Słodki. Born in Poland in 1892, Słodki was a Jewish painter and graphic artist who later moved to Paris, where he became associated with the Ecole de Paris movement. His work often reflects the influence of Cubism and Expressionism, and he is known for his vibrant use of color and dynamic compositions.

"Odpoczynek Arlekina" is a work that captures the essence of Słodki's artistic style, depicting the character of Harlequin, a figure commonly associated with the Italian commedia dell'arte. Harlequin is traditionally portrayed as a nimble and mischievous clown, whose checkered costume has become an iconic symbol in the visual arts. In Słodki's interpretation, the painting likely presents Harlequin in a moment of repose, offering a contrast to the character's usual energetic demeanor.

While the exact date of creation for "Odpoczynek Arlekina" is not specified, Słodki's most productive period was during the early to mid-20th century, before his death in the Holocaust in 1944. The painting is reflective of the broader themes in Słodki's oeuvre, which often include theatrical subjects, performers, and the exploration of identity through costume and masquerade.

As a work of art, "Odpoczynek Arlekina" contributes to the understanding of European modernist movements and the cultural milieu of the early 20th century. It also holds significance as part of the legacy of a Jewish artist whose life and career were tragically cut short by the events of World War II.

The painting is of interest not only to art historians but also to those studying the cultural history of the period, the Jewish experience in Europe, and the impact of the Ecole de Paris on the development of modern art. As with many works by artists of this era, "Odpoczynek Arlekina" serves as a poignant reminder of the vibrant cultural contributions that were nearly lost to the devastation of war and genocide.
