Catland (Louis Wain) Hardcover – January, 1995. by louis wain (Author).

Louis Wain (5 August 1860 – 4 July 1939) was an English artist best known for his drawings, which consistently featured anthropomorphized large-eyed cats and kittens. In his later years he may have suffered from schizophrenia (although this claim is disputed among specialists), which, according to some psychiatrists, can be seen in his works. Louis William Wain was born on 5 August 1860 in Clerkenwell in London. His father was a textile trader and embroiderer; his mother was French.

There is a Louis Wain exhibit going on now that I wanted to post about here for. You might also like the book I just picked up. It is called "Louis Wain's CATS", by Chris Beetles. It is more of a coffee-table book with lots of great colour illustrations, than an in-depth biography

Louis Wain was one of the most popular commercial illustrators in the history of England. Born in 1860, his anthropomorphic portrayals of cats captured the imagination of the Edwardian era and his work helped to elevate the profile and popularity of our feline friends to unprecedented heights.

love these cats

This is a sweet little book. It's 8 1/2 x 11 inches, but maybe only 30 pages long. There are only 15 pictures of Louis' drawings. The pictures are full page and full color, although maybe a little faded. There are only 3 that were drawn during Louis' phase of really schizophrenic looking drawings. Most of them are the earlier drawings, which are cute and strange, but not as fantastic as the later drawings. If you're looking for the wild, vibrating cats, this is not the book for you.

Shaktizragore

some good illustrations of his work, and some good information, but overall, not very full.

Goll

An absolutely wonderful book! It took a bit longer than expected, but it finally arrived and was well worth the wait!

Asher

Item just as described. Love the book.

This is a fascinating biography of an accomplished artist who started a whole "style" of cat art, known all over England. He married young, but his first wife became seriously ill right away...This is the story of a man with great imagination, which eventually let him to an insane asylum for a number of years...but he was so famous that the public eventually helped him out!

This edition is by Magna Press, 1995, and the most recent edition of the book. A slim large hardback, with about 40 pages. The kitties are as fascinating as the artist. Highly recommended. Rare.
