Kat op de rug gezien 1884 - 1952

"Kat op de rug gezien" is a woodcut print by Dutch artist Reinier Willem Petrus de Vries, created between 1884 and 1952. The minimalist artwork depicts a white cat viewed from behind, its tail gracefully curving to the right. The use of negative space and the cat's simple, stylized form create a sense of tranquility and focus on the animal's essence. The print's small size adds to its intimate and contemplative nature. De Vries's work often explored animal subjects, and this piece exemplifies his ability to capture both the physical form and the personality of his subjects in a simple and elegant way.
