. In this delightful engraving, Louis Wain captures the essence of holiday chaos with his signature anthropomorphic style. The scene depicts a group of mischievous rabbits, each adorned in their finest attire, preparing to embark on their well-deserved vacation. With an abundance of humor and charm, Wain brings these lovable characters to life as they scurry about, packing suitcases and exchanging farewell gestures. Their human-like expressions convey a range of emotions - from excitement to exhaustion - as they anticipate the much-anticipated break.

From the meticulous rabbit meticulously folding clothes to another frantically searching for misplaced items, there is no shortage of comedic moments within this whimsical composition. While "Breaking up for the Holidays" was originally created as an illustration for The Illustrated London News in 1892, its timeless appeal continues to resonate today.
