El gato que hizo visible una vocación
Louis Wain has not gone down in history simply because he is a good cartoonist; It's also one of the classic examples used to show how schizophrenia, a mental illness, can change people. This illness could have been captured pictorially in the development of his last paintings or, perhaps, it only shows the very acute artistic genius that continued to develop even in the harshest conditions. Key words: Louis Wain, schizophrenia, mental illness, painting, cats
