Anthropomorphic Anthropomorphism Knitting
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the enchanting world of the Victorian era with this image of an anthropomorphic cat engrossed in the art of knitting. The Edwardian-era photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time with its vintage charm and intriguing subject matter. The anthropomorphic cat, with its expressive eyes and delicate paws, sits in a cozy armchair, its furry tail curled around it as it focuses intently on its knitting needles. The scene is set in a charming Victorian parlor, with a lantern casting a warm, golden glow over the room. The cat's surroundings are filled with period details, including ornate wallpaper, a fireplace, and a grand piano in the background. Anthropomorphism, the attribution of human qualities or behaviors to non-human entities, was a popular trend during the Victorian era. This photograph showcases the whimsical and imaginative spirit of the time, as well as the love for animals that was prevalent in Victorian society. Knitting was also a popular pastime during this period, with many women and even some men taking up the craft as a way to pass the time and create practical items for their families. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the past, with its intricate details and charming subject matter. It invites us to imagine a world where cats could knit and animals could be just as human as we are. With its vintage aesthetic and timeless appeal, this image is a must-have for anyone who loves history, anthropomorphism, or simply the delightful quirks of the Victorian era.
