Unironically one of my favorite artists

Still watching this youtube channel about what I can only describe as "Dark Classical art" and this one absolutely floored me because I was unaware of it and I want to share it because it changes my perspective on this artist completely.

You might be aware of Louis Wain. If not by name then by his art. He's the artist behind that series of cat drawings that slowly became more and more abstract and bizarre.

This series of paintings of cats are often labelled as a visual representation of Wain's deteriorating mental illness and schizophrenia. Even more so often labelled as "a tragic display of a painter's failing battle with schizophrenia."

The paintings look like this and were painted around the very early 1900s.

Ok got all that?

So here's the thing.

Although Wain did suffer from a mental illness that was strong enough for him to be institutionalized, his mental illness was never diagnosed with clear certainty. Although "Schizophrenia" is so heavily applied to him based purely on how his series of paintings LOOK, despite actual specialists widely disputing this. On top of this, although he did paint the kaleidoscope cat portraits during this time, it was not the only things he painted, and he was quite capable of painting "normal" pictures of cats.

The Kaleidoscope Cat portraits are more images of him experimenting with colour and shapes, something the Smithsonian themselves state on their website.

Wain had actually made his entire living painting whimsical images of cats, often for product adverts, before he was incarcerated and was actually a very beloved artist at the time. When his friends learned of his incarceration, they started a collection of donation money to help transfer Wain to the Bethlam Royal Hospital instead, one of the best mental health facilities of the time. Even the Prime Minster of the time donated, and they raised a large amount of money across England to help him.

4 years later, Wain drew this as his final image which he released publicly

I knew all about "the Schizophrenic cat Guy" but he had always been presented to me as some tragic case of an artist going mad and his skills and work unraveling as he went insane.

Which is why I wanted to share this information which was new to me. And because I think it's important.

some lambs i really liked :3c + repost of a closeup of an important detail

also some info about my lamb, ramzi, under the cut;

[he/they/it for ramzi!]

hard to know where to start, so i guess ill start from the top? ramzi remembers everything before being executed, including having [admittedly murky] memories of his parents.

its mother gave them to ratau because she believed it'd be the safest place for her precious lamb, and her assumption was mostly true

they were left with that adorned handkerchief as a memento of its parents, and he's incredibly attached to it, even if the very sight of it makes him cry

shamura had been the one to catch ramzi in a trap- and despite his pleading he was given no mercy, it causes a rift between them later when it saves shamura from purgatory that will eventually be mended

he refuses to show his grief to anyone, especially the former bishops, and definitely not narinder. they don't wish to worry anyone, though resentment is absolutely a big part of it too, whether the lamb acknowledges it or not...

i'll definitely explain more but after a lot of hard work the lamb eventually enters a polycule and marries all of the former bishops (including narinder) we love toxic yaoi here.

should mention i was listening to 'its been raining' by kimya dawson for the last sketch here and fighting back tears MY BABY LAMB UGHHHHH.....,

I promise I'm working on more cult of the lamb stuff but rn I'm trying to figure out commissions! It is taking me awhile but I never said I was fast lol

6 for your lamb :0

6. who raised your lamb?

50-lamb-questions

They were raised in a small separate cult that worshipped Leshy that believed it took a village to care for the kids so everyone cared for them. The leaders daughter cared the most for Lamb and became their mother figure. The lamb only remembers them as "mums".
