Naming the Kittens

Mother examines one of the kittens as four young children look on. Perhaps they are working on naming the kittens. Even baby is helping to decide. Three of the children are also holding white kittens, can you spot them? One is almost hidden between mother’s yellow dress and a little girl’s red polka dot dress. The little boy is wearing a beige suit with a red tie and white collar. Another little girl is also in polka dots – hers are blue and white with a big blue sash. Three of the Victorian children are also holding kittens in this vintage and copyright free image.

Holly Berries is a book from 1881 which is overflowing with wonderful illustrations by the talented artist Ida Waugh (d.1919).
