Norman Lindsay Cat Prints
Approx Size: 296mm(w) x 420mm(h)
Every cat owner knows that although some cats might look similar,
no two cats are exactly the same. They are all individuals with
distinctly different personalities.
Famous Australian artist Norman Lindsay
was a cat owner and a cat person. He loved cats and for many
years had a large brood
of cats at his home at Springwood in the Blue Mountains of
New South Wales — Norman's daughter Jane tallied as many as
thirty-five at one time! Thus he had the opportunity to study
cats and their personalities over a long period of time. In his
spare time Norman delighted in drawing his cats in various positions — posing,
dozing, playing with feathers, defending themselves against
fowls, dogs and children or simply curled into soft, cuddly
balls of
fur.
This watercolour prints is just one of many (and nine produced
in the Norman Lindsay Artful Cats folio) cat personalities
and we are sure many people will recognise these traits in
their own loved cats.
