Cats, Study III
Artist: Louis Wain
A cat's face emerges from a field of close, interlacing ornament. The image is less a portrait than a pattern organised around a cat.
The Fire of the Mind Agitates the Atmosphere
Artist: Louis Wain
Two cats face one another in a drawing whose title gives the scene a psychological charge. The image is simple, but the title changes how it is read.
Watch the Birdy
Artist: Louis Wain
A minimal image record from the Louis Wain colour cats collection. Research and fuller interpretation are queued for a later revision.
I Am Happy Because Everybody Loves Me
Artist: Louis Wain
A large cat face fills the sheet above a handwritten motto. The wide eyes and broad smile make the image both cheerful and slightly uncanny.
Anthropomorphic Cat
Artist: Louis Wain
A seated cat in a coat and hat, representative of Wain's anthropomorphic style. The pose is calm and the costume does most of the storytelling.
