According to Wikipedia,
The French version of the
character was fashioned by
Jean-Gaspard Deburau (1796-1846)
He is the protagonist of the famous
French folk song, "Au Clair de la
Lune"
I just recently inherited these
clowns from my mother's doll
collection. I started researching
about the Pierrot Clowns and found
out that they had a very interesting
history...
