EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "Two Studies of a Cat" by the talented artist Théophile Alexandre Steinlen. Created using graphite on discoloured wove paper, these two studies beautifully capture the essence and grace of feline creatures. The artwork measures 13.2x16.8 cm and is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford, UK. In this particular piece, Steinlen focuses on depicting the cat from a back view, allowing us to appreciate its elegant form and intricate details. The artist's skillful use of shading and line work brings life to each stroke, showcasing his mastery in capturing the essence of this domestic animal. The seated position chosen for both studies adds an element of tranquility to the composition while highlighting the natural poise that cats possess even when at rest. These drawings serve as a testament to Steinlen's ability to observe animals closely and translate their unique characteristics onto paper. As we gaze upon these exquisite renderings, we are reminded once again why cats have been such beloved subjects throughout art history. Their mysterious nature combined with their graceful movements make them endlessly fascinating creatures to study and admire. This remarkable print allows us to bring home a small piece of artistic brilliance while celebrating one of our most cherished companions – the enigmatic yet enchanting cat.
