Cats in Art Timeline

Cristina Berna, Eric Thomsen

Sinossi

During our research about the Spanish painter Joaquín Sorolla (born in Valencia 1863 - died in Cercedilla 1923) we came across a wonderful painting of his wife with a cat and a dog, Clotilde y gato y perro, from 1910. 
As animal lovers the idea arose to see, how cats were portrayed in painting around the period of Sorolla. Earlier painters had struggled with getting the proportions right, especially the faces but there was a huge development of talent in Europe in the 19th century.
It proved to be a very rewarding tour of both Europe, Asia and USA. Cats is a great subject and it is impossible to cover Cats in Art in just one short volume. It would make a great exhibition!
Nevertheless, we hope that you will enjoy the selection and the masterful skills and talent of these great artists!

Rare Recording of Father Charles...

Father Charles Coughlin

Father Charles Coughlin was a controversial Canadian-American Catholic priest based in Michigan. Calling for monetary reforms, the nationalization of major industries and railroads, and protection of the rights of labor, Coughlin used weekly radio broadcasts to reach a mass audience of up to thirty million listeners during the 1930s. 
An early supporter of Franklin D. Roosevelt and his New Deal, Coughlin later became a harsh critic. Coughlin’s commentary also became more anti-semitic, and he supported some of the fascist policies of Hitler, Mussolini, and Hirohito. As a result, many American Catholic leaders, as well as the Vatican, wanted Coughlin silenced. After the outbreak of World War II in 1939, the Roosevelt administration finally forced the cancellation of his radio program and forbade the dissemination of his newspaper, Social Justice. 
In this recording, Coughlin first discusses Franklin D. Roosevelt, and then the consequences of World War I twenty years after.
