Holland - Haarlem - Malle Babbe - Foolish Babbe
Left the painting by Frans Hals - right the bronze statue (detail)

Malle/Foolish Babbe is a historical figure. The famous artist Frans Hals made a painting of her in 1630 with an owl upon her shoulder. Malle/Foolish Babbe served as a waitress in a pub in the Haarlem Smedestraat and she possibly also rendered other services to her male customers...

The statue you see here is based upon Frans Hals' painting.
Malle/Foolish Babbe was not very impressed by Frans Hals' painting. 'An owl upon my shoulder', said she, 'I am no witch, am I?' Frans Hals is reported to have answered: 'The owl is the symbol of wisdom.'
Quote from:
Malle/Foolish Babbe's son, a dutch historical book for children from 10 until 80 by Golden Slate-pencil (Gouden Griffel) winner Frank Herzen - 1999.

Earlier in time Boudewijn de Groot (text) en Lennaert Nijgh (composer) and Rob de Nijs (singer) produced a quite successfull ballad upon Malle/Foolish Babbe in the year 1973.

Adele Bloemendaal sang the Malle Babbe ballad already in the year 1969. Her interpretation was very intense!

Holland - Haarlem - Spaarne
Last Thursday I visited the exhibition with works by Nicolaes Berchem in the Frans Hals Museum in Haarlem for the third time. And I still enjoyed it tremendously. For all of you living in Holland or visiting Holland and Haarlem:
warmly recommended. The exhibition will be in this museum until April 15, 2007.
The unique collection of paintings shown here is gathered from private collections and from museums all over Europe. Even HM the Queen of England was so kind as to contribute one painting for this exhibition.
