25 medieval images of cats that were created based on rumors and stories (26 photos)
Imagine a medieval monk sitting and diligently copying a manuscript. The book needs to be illustrated with a picture of a cat. But there's a problem: he's never seen one in his life.
He was only told, in detail and detail, what this miracle looked like: "A beast, with ears, a tail, and four legs." That was enough. Creatures with human faces, snake-like necks, maniac smiles, and limbs that nature clearly disapproved of began to appear. Some look like dragons, some like sad worms, and some simply look right through you, aware of their greatness and superiority over leather, even in the form of a medieval design.
