The Thieving Magpie was originally a French play called 'La Pie voleuse ou La Servante de Palaiseau' (lit. The thieving magpie or The Maid of Palaiseau) (usually abridged as 'La Pie voleuse') written by Théodore Baudouin d'Aubigny and Louis-Charles Caigniez which premiered in Théâtre de la Porte Saint-Martin on the 29th of April 1815. This story is said to be inspired by real life events: a servant was accused of a theft that was actually by a magpie.[1][2]
Gioachino Rossini was inspired to write the Italian melodramma 'La gazza ladra' (lit. The thieving magpie) based on La Pie volouse, which premiered 31st of May 1817 at La Scala in Milan. This version brought the story to an international audience and is the most likely contender to have reached Herman van Veen for him to be inspired to write the general outlines for the story featuring Pikkie de Ekster that started in episode 2 and ended in episode 3 of the animated series.
