Harlequin es el más conocido de los personajes de sirvientes cómicos (Zanni) de la commedia dell'arte italiana, asociado con la ciudad de Bergamo. Se cree tradicionalmente que el papel fue introducido por el actor y empresario italiano Zan Ganassa a finales del siglo XVI. Fue popularizado definitivamente por el actor italiano Tristano Martinelli en Paris en 1584–1585, y se convirtió en un personaje tipo después de la muerte de Martinelli en 1630.
