I could not find out how old the kid was. One day I’ll be able to find out.
Little bit of trivia. There’s a movie that was loosely based on Deburau’s life, Les Enfants du Paradis. The background of this strip is sort of based on an image from that film.
Tempted to see this movie. But that would depend entirely on how clowny it is.
