EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print taken by John Topham in 1936, we are transported back to a time between the wars in Tunbridge Wells, Kent. The image showcases an unexpected yet delightful scene - a cat taking on the role of a vigilant guardian over an Austin van. With its piercing gaze and poised stance, the feline seems to have assumed its duty with utmost seriousness. Its presence adds a touch of eccentricity and quirkiness to the otherwise ordinary setting. Perhaps it is donning some sort of cat clothing or simply enjoying being in charge. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of this snapshot from the thirties, evoking nostalgia for an era long gone. The image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also reflects the unique bond between humans and animals. As we admire this photograph, we can't help but wonder about the story behind it - was this cat truly acting as a guard cat? Or was it merely drawn to explore what secrets lay within that parked van? Regardless, there is no denying that this charming picture brings joy and humor through its unexpected juxtaposition. John Topham's skillful composition allows us to appreciate both the beauty of nature's creatures and our ability as humans to find amusement even in everyday situations. This photo serves as a testament to his talent for capturing life's whimsical moments through his lens.
