EDITORS COMMENTS
Driving to the Races: A Whimsical Journey by Louis Wain (1911) This delightful postcard by renowned English artist Louis Wain captures the playful spirit of a day at the races. In the image, a determined driver, dressed in a top hat and tailcoat, steers his carriage through a bustling street. His team of four energetic dogs, harnessed and ready for action, pull the vehicle with unyielding enthusiasm. However, the focus of the scene is not on the impending horserace but rather on the unexpected distraction that has captured the driver's attention. A group of acrobatic cats, perched precariously on the edge of a nearby fence, perform daring feats, their tails twirling in the wind. The driver, unable to resist the spectacle, turns to watch the feline performers, momentarily forgetting his mission. The scene is filled with humor and whimsy, as the serious business of driving to the races is juxtaposed with the lighthearted antics of the cats. A policeman, standing at the side of the road, observes the scene with a wry smile, adding to the sense of fun and merriment. Louis Wain's unique artistic style, characterized by his anthropomorphized animals, brought joy and laughter to generations of collectors and admirers. This postcard, with its charming depiction of a day at the races, is a testament to Wain's ability to capture the absurdity and humor in everyday life.
