EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a delightful Victorian die cut three-dimensional greeting card from the late 19th century. The image features an enchanting scene of anthropomorphic cats dressed in uniforms, joyfully playing musical instruments. Created with meticulous attention to detail, this colour lithograph captures the whimsical essence of the era. The cats are seen engrossed in their musical performance, each holding a different instrument - a drum, trumpet, saxophone, flute, and bugle. Their expressions exude pure delight as they create harmonious melodies that surely resonate with anyone who gazes upon this charming artwork. The three-dimensional aspect adds depth and life to the scene; it feels as though these feline musicians could jump right out of the frame and continue their merry tune. Placed within an intricately designed basket adorned with floral motifs, this greeting card is truly a work of art. While its creator remains unknown, this piece evokes memories of renowned English artist Louis Wain's iconic cat illustrations. With its vibrant colours and playful composition, it serves as a testament to the enduring charm of Victorian-era craftsmanship. Preserved in private collection for decades before being captured by photographer eDavid Pearson for Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder archive, this extraordinary print allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind it but also transports us back to a time when such intricate greetings were cherished tokens exchanged between loved ones.
