Louis Wain Trivia!

Louis Wain Fact #65:

The black cat has an interesting place in superstition and mythology. In Wain’s work it was always seen as a sign of Good luck, as it was common in Britain at the time. However, in certain areas of the UK and Europe, and especially the US, the black cat was beginning to take hold as an icon of bad luck and witchcraft.
