Synopsis
The author Chris Beetles has been the main populiser of Wain's art and has staged exhibitions since 1983. A full book list of Wain's published work completes this valuable and indispensable work which will appeal to both specialist collector and cat enthusiast alike., With more than 300 superlative colour images, many shown for the first time ever, which are brought to life by the lucid narrative of Chris Beetles, the leading authority on Louis Wain. This new book comprises a comprehensive survey of the life and work of one of the best known cat artists of the Victorian and Edwardian period, including a new biography, and catalogue raisonne of Louis Wain's Lucky Futurist Mascots: his unique ceramic creations. The first 1000 copies of this first edition will be signed and numbered by Chris Beetles.", The first comprehensive exhibition of Wain's work was held at the Victoria and Albert museum in London in 1972 and since then Louis Wain has steadily become more fashionable, and collected worldwide. This new biography will show many images for the first time ever, amongst 300 plates of richness and variety, all of which are originated faithfully from the original artwork.Louis Wain who was born in 1860, was a shy and eccentric personality who became famous by the age of 40 and at his most productive, painted 600 cat pictures a year, and published his celebrated Louis Wain Annuals between 1901 and 1914. His financial difficulties, post war, contributed to a rapid decline into schizophrenia as Wain became isolated and unmanageable. In 1924 he was certified insane and admitted to Springfield hospital. Briefly forgotten he was discovered in this pauper's asylum a year later and following an appeal involving many writers and artists, and the intervention of the Prime Minister himself, he was transferred to the new Napsbury hospital, in the Hertfordshire countryside. In these pleasant surroundings he lived on until 1935, painting ceaselessly and recreating a new and more colorful cat world.His later unpublished work is now well known to us as it reveals his schizophrenic illness: highly coloured cats become more frenzied and the pictures are often crammed with paranoid delusional writing: cats are angry and more frenetic and often in the background are the curious buildings of the mental asylums. But at times these pictures reveal a beautiful tranquility with animals living in harmony in bright utopian landscapes., Louis Wain invented a cat style, a cat society, a whole cat world, this new biography includes 300 plates many of which are shown for the first time ever.

- c***c (226)- Feedback lasciato dall'acquirente.Ultimi 6 mesiAcquisto verificatoMy book arrived in good condition. Packaging was a rigid cardboard mailer, and it protected my book well. It was shipped in a reasonable amount of time, but I was still prompted to reach out to inquire further about it. Seller communication was very good, answering me within 24-hours. I was told shipping can take 9-15 days to happen... it arrived within 10 days after purchase. I would purchase from this seller again. Two thumbs up!
