A set of drawings from a well-known feline artist will be auctioned in the Cotswolds later.

Six drawings by Louis Wain, whose life was portrayed in the 2021 film The Electrical Life of Louis Wain, are going under the hammer at The Cotswold Auction Company.

‘Scenes from the Courts’ feature feline characters starring as participants in a courtroom drama and are estimated to fetch between £3,000 and £5,000.

Auctioneer Lindsey Braune said: “Louis Wain’s drawings were a huge hit with the public nearly a century before cat videos took over the internet.”

She added: “They demonstrate humanity’s ongoing love affair with our cute feline companions and the set of six we are offering are sure have buyers purring.”
