Ole Lukoie
***
Ole Lukoie is one of Hans Christian Andersen's folk tales, telling of a mysterious mythic creature - based on folklore character of the Sandman. Ole Lukoie gently takes children to sleep and, depending on how good or bad they were, shows them various dreams.
- "...Under each arm he carries an umbrella; one of them, with pictures, he spreads over the good children, and then they dream the most beautiful stories the whole night. But the other umbrella has no pictures, and this he holds over the naughty children so that they sleep heavily, and wake in the morning without having dreamed at all."
"Ole-Lukoie" by Hans Christian Andersen.
-
Ole Lukoie walks in stockings without shoes so that not to wake anybody up.
When he comes, the room fills with flowers, trees, songs or birds and floral fragrances. In my sculpt, the base is decorated with potpurri which was sealed with clear coat, but it still has a faint fragrant aroma about it.
If the child is up, he sprinkles sweet milk into his or her eyes to make him or her sleepy. He carries sweet milk in the old golden milk bottle hanging on his shoulder.
