Cheshire & Wain has launched an exclusive Louis Wain collection
 
Cheshire & Wain has launched an exclusive Louis Wain collection, which is in homage to eccentric British artist Louis Wain, whose work often depicted cats with vibrant floral backdrops. Brought to life on screen by Benedict Cumberbatch in The Electrical Life of Louis Wain (2021), Wain captivated hearts with his widely popular anthropomorphic cats, elevating their status from vermin and occasional mousers to the pets we love today.
