The artwork titled “ONE EYE ON YOU,” created by the artist Louis Wain, belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and falls under the genre of animal painting.
The artwork features a stylized drawing of a cat with a distinctive expression. The piece is rendered in a monochromatic palette with what appears to be reddish-brown ink or pencil on paper. The cat is depicted with one wide-open eye, creating an impression of curiosity or surprise, while the other eye is obscured by a rectangular patch, lending a playful and whimsical character to the illustration. The feline’s face is portrayed with bold, confident lines and minimalistic details, capturing the essence of the subject in an almost caricatural fashion. The artist’s signature, ‘Louis Wain’, is inscribed on the lower left corner, further affirming the origin of this distinctive work.
