EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and whimsical postcard from the 1890s, capturing a unique and feline-filled moment at a French wedding. The quaint stone church, adorned with ivy and flowers, sets the scene for this delightful scene. A group of cats, dressed in their best human attire, gather together to witness the nuptials of the bride and groom. The bride, resplendent in a white gown and veil, and the groom, in a smart tuxedo, exchange vows before the watchful eyes of their feline friends. The priest, also dressed in his Sunday best, officiates the ceremony with a serious expression, seemingly unfazed by the presence of the animals. The cats, dressed in various outfits, from suits and dresses to hats and bonnets, add a touch of anthropomorphism and humor to this comic scene. This postcard, a testament to the playful and humanized depiction of animals during the late 1800s, is a delightful reminder of the enduring bond between humans and their beloved pets.
