Forfeits and Handstand Cats
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Louis Wain (1904) This delightful and whimsical print by renowned British artist Louis Wain captures a joyful scene of cats engaging in a traditional game of Forfeits. Dating back to the 18th century, Forfeits was a popular party game where participants were required to perform a predetermined action or task as a consequence of losing a challenge or competition. In this charming depiction, the cats seem to be fully embracing the spirit of the game, with some playfully hiding their faces in embarrassment while others proudly show off their forfeits. The centerpiece of the image is a cat in a handstand position, serving as the forfeit for a lucky (or unlucky) winner. Louis Wain's signature style, characterized by his intricate and detailed line work, brings the cats to life with their expressive faces and exaggerated body language. The artist's use of vibrant colors and playful compositions adds to the overall sense of merriment and fun. Wain's affinity for cats is evident in this delightful print, which showcases their unique personalities and abilities. The artist's ability to capture the essence of these beloved creatures, as well as the joy and camaraderie of a friendly game, makes "Forfeits and Handstand Cats" a cherished piece of art and a testament to the enduring appeal of both cats and the games we play.
