Cats have been charming us with their indifference for as long as we’ve been sketching on canvas. In the background, on the table, or right at the forefront, cats of the past peer out from paintings and sketches, frescoes, and prints across art history. Art Cat is a collection of these painted felines, featuring works from artists across the ages and continents. Japanese prints, German oils, American sketches, Italian murals are all included. The work spans eras and styles, but as different as these cats are, one thing shines through: that we have been obsessed with cats for far longer than the Internet. Hardcover; 96 pages.
