by A.K. MacDonald, September 1931 This exquisite color illustration, titled "Pets," is a captivating work by the talented Scottish artist, A.K. MacDonald, created in September 1931. The image, published by the Illustrated London News, depicts a charming scene of a lady in a delicate negligee, playfully engaging with two adorable cats. The lady's gentle touch and the cats' contented expressions convey a sense of warmth, affection, and tranquility. The historical context of this illustration transports us back to the early 20th century, a time when the bond between humans and their pets was deeply cherished. The use of vibrant colors and intricate details in MacDonald's artwork brings the scene to life, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty and intimacy of the moment.
