Fais Dodo, Pierrot
EDITORS COMMENTS
(Go to sleep, Pierrot) is a beloved French lullaby that has been passed down through generations, capturing the hearts of children and adults alike with its soothing melody and endearing lyrics. This charming print from Mary Evans Picture Library offers a glimpse into the rich history of this cherished nursery rhyme. The image features a young sister gently cradling her brother in her arms as she sings the lullaby to him. The brother, dressed in traditional French attire including a white shirt, red checkered pants called sabots, and a Pierrot mask, closes his eyes and drifts off to sleep. The sister's expression is one of tender affection and love as she watches over her brother, ensuring his peaceful slumber. The origins of "Fais Dodo, Pierrot" are shrouded in mystery, with some believing it to have originated in the 18th century. The Pierrot character, a white-faced harlequin with black patches around his eyes and mouth, has been a popular figure in French culture for centuries, often depicted as a clown or jester. The use of the Pierrot character in the lullaby adds an element of whimsy and playfulness, making it even more endearing to children. The rhymes of the lullaby are simple and easy to remember, making it a staple in French households for centuries. The words "Fais dodo, Pierrot, fais dodo, dormir, Fais dodo, Pierrot, au lit, au lit, au lit" (Go to sleep, Pierrot, go to sleep, sleep, go to sleep, Pierrot, in bed, in bed, in bed) are still sung to children in France today, passing on the tradition from one generation to the next. This beautiful print is not only a testament to the enduring popularity of "Fais Dodo, Pierrot" but also to the special bond between siblings and the power of lullabies to soothe and comfort. It is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that exists in the simple rhymes and melodies of our past.
