Louis Wain Fact #59:
"In writing on his art style, Wain emphasised that he always started with the ears: “if I try any other way the proportions are certain to go wrong. Why, I do not know.” This is seen in the only known footage of him drawing and might also be alluded to in this late artwork."

And as, of course, the less the great,
Whate'er their station, imitate,
The Ping Pong craze, as time extended,
Unto the kitchen-floor descended.
