EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting illustration, titled "Puss Puss," is a beautiful work of art by renowned English artist Cecil Aldin from the year 1921. The illustration captures a tender moment as a white kitten is carefully being placed in a woven basket, ready to be given away. The kitten, with its soft, fluffy fur and curious expression, gazes up at the gentle hands that are putting it in the basket. The lid of the basket is already in place, suggesting that this is the final step before the kitten begins its journey to its new home. Cecil Aldin was a prolific illustrator, best known for his humorous and heartwarming depictions of animals, particularly cats and dogs. This illustration is part of the "Humphrey and Milford" series, which was originally published in the popular magazine "The Graphic." The series followed the adventures of two young boys and their beloved pets, and this particular illustration is believed to have been published in the issue dated August 28, 1921. The 1920s were an era of great change and innovation, and this illustration provides a charming glimpse into the past. The simple pleasures of life, such as the joy of giving or receiving a new pet, were cherished during this time. This beautiful illustration by Cecil Aldin is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of cats but also a reminder of the warmth and love that animals bring into our lives. The intricate details of the illustration, from the texture of the kitten's fur to the folds of the basket, make it a true work of art. It is a delight to behold and a reminder of the simple joys of life that we should cherish. Whether you are an animal lover, a collector of vintage illustrations, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of art, this illustration by Cecil Aldin is sure to capture your heart.
