Perfect for cat lovers or anyone who knows that love doesn’t need a big performance. With its languid pose and half-lidded gaze, this cat embodies bohemian affection: sensual, self-possessed, and free. Steinlen’s warm tones evoke a Paris where romance favored comfort over spectacle, a tribute to love that purrs, not roars.This drawing is held in the Charles Deering Collection or is held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art courtesy of The Elisha Whittelsey Collection, The Elisha Whittelsey Fund.
