Anthropomorphism Cats Coats Ginger Humanised Lane Muff Scarf Tabby
EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the magical world of the late Victorian era, as depicted in this enchanting Christmas card image from the 1890s. The scene unfolds on a crisp, winter's evening in London's fashionable Park Lane. Two elegant feline friends, one tabby and the other ginger, are seen enjoying an evening out, clad in coats and accessories reminiscent of human attire. The tabby cat, with a stylishly tied scarf around its neck, seems to be deep in conversation with its ginger companion, who is adorned with a fashionable muff. Their humanized expressions and anthropomorphic attributes add a whimsical touch to this historical tableau. The pavement beneath their paws is adorned with the telltale signs of the season - fallen leaves, twinkling fairy lights, and the distant sound of carolers. The street, bathed in the soft glow of gas lamps, offers a sense of warmth and companionship as the cats linger in the night, seemingly unbothered by the passing time. This charming image, a testament to the enduring bond between humans and their beloved pets, is a delightful reminder of the rich history and traditions that surround the holiday season. As the cats stand there, wrapped in their coats and enjoying the festive atmosphere, it's easy to imagine that they won't be going home till morning.
