EDITORS COMMENTS
Tatters: The Eager Wire-Haired Fox Terrier Chasing After His Master's Car in the 1920s This delightful illustration by renowned British artist Cecil Aldin captures the playful spirit of a wire-haired fox terrier named Tatters. Dated back to 1927, this charming piece of art depicts Tatters in full pursuit of his masters car, ears perked up and tail wagging, as the horn blares in the background. The Terrier's determination to keep up with his owners is evident in the way he strains at the leash, his eyes fixed on the departing vehicle. The 1920s, also known as the Roaring Twenties, was an era of excitement and innovation. Automobiles became a symbol of freedom and prosperity, and dogs like Tatters were not left behind in the fun. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this period, with the car's sleek design and Tatters' timeless appeal. Cecil Aldin was a prolific illustrator, known for his depictions of dogs and country life. His work was regularly featured in books, magazines, and calendars, making him a beloved figure in the world of illustration. This particular illustration of Tatters chasing the car is a testament to Aldin's ability to capture the unique personality of his subjects and the joy they bring to our lives. As we look at this illustration, we can't help but smile at the sight of Tatters' eager expression and the sense of adventure that comes with the open road. It's a reminder of the simple pleasures in life and the enduring bond between humans and their pets.
