EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the whimsical world of the late Victorian era, where the artistic process and feline companions intertwined in a delightful dance of creativity and mischief. This charming postcard, circa 1890s, captures the playful antics of two kittens as they explore an artist's palette. The tabby and black kittens, with their inquisitive eyes and innocent expressions, seem to relish the messy chaos of paint, brushes, tubes, and smears that lay before them. Their paws poised, they appear ready to make their mark on the canvas, adding a touch of comic humour to the serious business of painting. The artist's palette, once a sacred space for the creation of masterpieces, has been transformed into a playground for these naughty felines. The brown and white fur of the kittens contrasts beautifully with the rich hues of the paint, creating a visually striking scene that is both endearing and amusing. The artist, perhaps momentarily distracted, seems to have embraced the interruption, allowing the kittens to add their own unique flair to the artwork. This German greetings postcard, with its intricate border design and attention to detail, is a testament to the enduring appeal of the bond between cats and art. The image invites us to appreciate the lighter side of the creative process and the joy that can be found in the unexpected moments of life.
