5.0 out of 5 stars
Schizophrenic artist of cats,
By a-to-b books "a-to-b books" (Hollywood) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Catland (Louis Wain) (Hardcover)
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.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Catland (Hardcover)
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.
