EDITORS COMMENTS
Louis Wain's whimsical and charming illustration, titled "Daddy Cat - going shooting," showcases the beloved British artist's unique depiction of anthropomorphized cats engaging in human activities. Circa the 1910s, this print captures the essence of fun and humor as Daddy Cat, dressed in hunting attire complete with a tweed jacket, cap, and gun slung over his shoulder, prepares to embark on a shooting excursion. Accompanying him are his kittens, each dressed in adorable miniature hunting outfits, eagerly following their father with excitement and anticipation. The playful scene is filled with delightful details, such as the kittens carrying rifles and wearing hunting vests, the quirky expressions on their faces, and the picturesque background of a serene countryside. Wain's signature style, characterized by his intricate line work and vibrant colors, brings the scene to life and adds to the overall sense of joy and amusement. This enchanting print is a testament to Louis Wain's remarkable ability to humanize cats and imbue them with endearing personalities. It also showcases the artist's appreciation for the sport of hunting, which was popular during the early 20th century. With its timeless appeal and delightful sense of humor, "Daddy Cat - going shooting" continues to captivate audiences and remains an enduring symbol of the whimsy and charm of the 1910s.
