"Pulcinella: A Timeless Character of Joy and Entertainment" In this captivating 19th-century painting from the United Kingdom, we see Pulcinella, a beloved character known for his mischievous nature and comedic antics. With a heartwarming gesture, he is seen giving pasta to a little Pulcinella, symbolizing the passing down of tradition and laughter through generations. The influence extends beyond paintings; he has made appearances in various forms of entertainment throughout history. In a charming Christmas card featuring Pulcinella and Pierrot, their playful spirits bring cheer to all who receive it. Puppetry has always been closely associated with Pulcinella's legacy. In an engraving from "ABC des joujoux ou Alphabet des tout petits, " we find letters P, Q, and R beautifully illustrated with references to puppetry such as "Puppet, " "Skittles, " and "Racket. " This serves as a reminder that puppets have long been cherished companions in children's playtime. One cannot discuss puppetry without mentioning Punch and Judy shows. George Cruikshank's illustrations capture the essence of these lively performances where Mr. Punch (also known as Pulcinella) takes center stage with his humorous antics that never fail to entertain audiences young and old alike. Beyond entertainment value, political satire also found its way into portraying our beloved character. In La Caricature's satirical illustration titled "Ceremony of Political Ashes, " we witness Polichinelle challenging societal norms through anticlericalism while addressing issues like the death penalty execution echafaud system or teaching methods - D Arguout leaves no stone unturned when it comes to critiquing society. Even in more modern times, artists continue to pay homage to this iconic figure. An engraving by Baron Ernest de Liphart showcases Polichinelle in an alphabet book called "Album-Alphabet.
