EDITORS COMMENTS
This delightful illustration is taken from the French publication 'Les Images en Musique' dated 1908, featuring the playful and humorous scene of a dancing lesson in a park. The image, created by renowned French illustrator Benjamin Rabier, showcases a lively group of cats and other animals engaging in a dance class. The elegant and formal setting is filled with the joy and excitement of learning, as the animals bow and curtsy to each other, mimicking their human counterparts. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of a mandolin player and a pipe organist, adding a musical element to the lesson. The black dog and crow, with their expressive faces, add a touch of fun and comic relief to the otherwise serious scene. The illustration is accompanied by easy piano pieces, composed by Jane Vieu, allowing the viewer to imagine the music that would have accompanied this whimsical moment. The illustration is set amidst a beautiful park landscape, with trees, flowers, and grass providing a picturesque backdrop. The animals, dressed in pairs, appear to be thoroughly enjoying themselves, their tails held high and their eyes filled with determination and delight. This charming and historical image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when animals could dance, play music, and even learn the art of ballroom dancing.
