1860 Academy Feline Instructing Kitten Pupils Teacher Wain
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, dear kittens, and welcome to Mrs. Tabitha's Cat Academy, a whimsical and historical institution of feline learning brought to life through the humorous illustrations of Louis Wain. In this delightful image, Mrs. Tabitha, a regally attired cat, stands before her eager pupils, each kitten intently listening and absorbing every word. The scene is reminiscent of a traditional schoolroom, with chalkboard, ruler, and desks, but with a distinctly feline twist. Louis Wain (1860-1939) was a British artist, renowned for his unique and imaginative depictions of cats. His illustrations, filled with intricate patterns and playful humor, captured the hearts of many during the late Victorian and early 20th centuries. This particular illustration, titled "Showing the Kittens," dates back to the early 1900s and is a testament to Wain's ability to bring a sense of joy and wonder to even the most mundane activities. Mrs. Tabitha, with her stern yet loving expression, exudes the air of a dedicated and compassionate teacher, while her kittens, with their wide-eyed expressions and eager postures, embody the spirit of eager learners. This charming illustration not only offers a glimpse into the whimsical world of Louis Wain but also serves as a reminder of the enduring bond between cats and humans and the importance of education and learning. This print, available through Mary Evans Prints Online, is an essential addition to any cat lover's collection or a wonderful conversation starter for those interested in the history of illustration and the quirks of Victorian-era humor.
