From my continuing weekly Sunday series of
cats in art. I am using
some ideas from the coffee table book, The Cat in Art, by Stefano
Zuffi.
Image credit The Athenaeum, here [click to enlarge]. Girl With Cat in the Birch Forest, Paula Modersohn-Becker, 1905.
The girl seems on a mission to somewhere, while the kitty is along--unwillingly, it appears--for the ride.
I sense an attempted feline escape coming very soon.
I like the simplistic lines, the childlike faces, and the overall sense of observational detachment that Modersohn-Becker conveys.
