EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "The Cat Did It" takes us back to the year 1847, immersing us in a scene filled with mischief and chaos. Created by George Cruikshank, an esteemed illustrator of his time, this artwork showcases his talent for capturing humor and storytelling through detailed engravings. In this image, we find ourselves inside a bustling interior where a mischievous tabby cat has wreaked havoc. The room is adorned with broken crockery scattered across the floor while the cat nonchalantly sits on top of a dresser, seemingly proud of its destructive accomplishments. Its white fur stands out against the dark backdrop as it indulges in feasting on ham and drinking from an overturned glass. Cruikshank's attention to detail is evident as he portrays other animals within the chaotic scene. A duck waddles nearby, perhaps startled by the commotion caused by our feline protagonist. Meanwhile, another cat can be seen playing with a hammer nearby – further emphasizing that trouble seems to follow these mischievous creatures wherever they go. "The Cat Did It" captures not only the playful nature of cats but also highlights their ability to cause mayhem when left unsupervised. This historical engraving serves as both entertainment and a reminder of how even our beloved pets can sometimes lead us into unexpected situations.
