EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, capturing a moment in theatrical history. The image features Debureau pere et Charles Debureau fils, the two last Pierrots of the famous Theatre des Funambules. The father and son duo are depicted in their iconic Pierrot costumes, with their faces painted white and adorned with delicate tears. Their expressive eyes seem to hold a hint of melancholy, perhaps reflecting the passing era of this traditional form of entertainment. The intricate details of their costumes are beautifully rendered in this print, showcasing the craftsmanship that went into creating these elaborate outfits. From ruffled collars to oversized buttons, every element adds to the whimsical charm associated with Pierrot characters. It is worth noting that this engraving was originally created as an illustration for Arthur Pougin's Dictionnaire du Theatre in 1884. This publication aimed to document various aspects of theater history and culture during that time. As we gaze upon this historic image, we can almost hear the laughter and applause from audiences long gone. It serves as a reminder of how theater has evolved over centuries while still preserving its timeless magic.
