EDITORS COMMENTS
More Sausages for Me" is a charming and humorous cartoon by the renowned British artist Louis Wain, created in 1914 during the tumultuous period of World War I. This print depicts a mischievous cat, dressed in a monocle and holding a cigar, eagerly reaching out for more sausages as they are being offered by a human figure dressed in the uniform of a soldier from the 1st Great War. The soldier, with a determined expression, holds a tray laden with sausages, ready to satisfy the cat's insatiable appetite. The image is a delightful representation of the whimsical and humorous style that Louis Wain is celebrated for. The humanisation of animals, particularly cats, was a hallmark of Wain's art, and this print is no exception. The cat's monocle and cigar add a touch of sophistication and humor to the scene, while the soldier's military uniform serves as a reminder of the historical context in which the artwork was created. The 1910s was a period of significant social and cultural change, and this print reflects the spirit of the era. The use of humor and lightheartedness in the face of the challenges and hardships of wartime is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the human spirit. The image also serves as a reminder of the importance of community and camaraderie, as the soldier and the cat share a moment of connection and companionship. This print is an excellent addition to any collection of historical art, particularly those focused on the 1st Great War, British art, or the works of Louis Wain. Its timeless appeal and enduring charm make it a beloved and cherished piece that continues to captivate and delight viewers to this day.
