My favourite piece of art

Hello everybody. Today I’m going to talk about of my favourite of piece of art.
 
One of my favourite of piece of art is this collage with different drawings of cats by Louis Wain.


Louis Wain was a painter who specialized in drawing animals, mainly cats. His career was very successful. He work for various magazines and also he presented his drawings for many agriculture fairs. During this period, his work includes a wide variety of animals, and maintained its ability to draw all creatures throughout his life, but definitely he liked makes cat.  The writer H. G.  Wells said of Wain: "He has made the cat his own. He invented a cat style, a cat society, a whole cat world. English cats that do not look and live like Louis Wain cats are ashamed of themselves."

In his last year of life, it was said he suffered from schizophrenia, but he continued to draw until his death. According to psychiatrists, his last paintings give clear indications of his schizophrenia, because the sense of the reality and the form in his paintings was completely lost.


Well, the amazing thing is that this collage these drawings performed as his schizophrenia was advancing. You can be seen as lines of cats lose the way, becoming a dispersion of forms and colors. This is incredible!.
