I am Henry the cat I am
Henry the cat I am I am
I moved in with the people next door
They’ve had several cats before
And all of them were pussycats
They woudn’t have a tomcat or a male (no Tom!)
I’m their first tomcat, I’m Henry
Henry the cat I am.
Apologies to Hermann’s Hermits.

This is the “tobacco fountain” in Lorsch, Germany. Tobacco was cultivated in the area since the late 17th century; in 1949 2000 people worked in the tobacco industry (out of a population of 6000) but after the second world war it declined rapidly and the last factory closed in 1993. The fountain shows a worker threading tobacco leaves so they could be hung up to dry. Contrasting her busy work are a child and cat, both busy playing with marbles, while the modern day tourists in the background are busy relaxing.
