In this exquisite print, we witness the timeless relationship between cats and mice unfold before our eyes. The intricate details of the engraving showcase the mastery of the English artist who skillfully brings this scene to life. The sleeping cat, peacefully curled up with closed eyes, exudes an air of relaxation and contentment.
