“I will be mother to every one of you [cats],” said the Baroness; “my heart is big enough to hold you all. Kiss me my dear children, all of you. I will love you all, have no fear. [...]”

The Baroness, wearing a crown like a queen, holds a cat high in the air. An owl watches.

The illustration is signed by Louis Wain.
