Meunier tu dors
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a traditional French song illustrated in this beautiful postcard from 1903. The image features a serene mill scene with a sleeping miller, as the title of the song suggests. The mill, with its tall, conical roof and large waterwheel, is nestled in a picturesque setting with rolling hills and a tranquil river flowing nearby. The miller, dressed in traditional clothing, lies peacefully on a bed of hay, surrounded by sacks of grain and tools of the trade. The song "Meunier tu dors" is a lullaby, a soothing melody meant to put the miller to sleep. The lyrics, written in French notation at the bottom of the postcard, read "Meunier tu dors, ton moulin brume," which translates to "Miller, you sleep, your mill is shrouded in mist." The gentle melody and calming imagery of the postcard evoke a sense of peace and relaxation, making it a fitting representation of the traditional French way of life. This postcard is a beautiful example of the illustrative art of the early 20th century. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring the scene to life, transporting the viewer to a simpler time and place. The use of traditional French music and imagery also adds to the authenticity and charm of the postcard. Overall, this postcard is a delightful and nostalgic reminder of the rich cultural heritage of France.
