Studie van twee katten 1836

"Studie van twee katten" (Study of Two Cats) is a lithograph by Antoine Louis Barye, created in 1836. Barye, known for his sculptures of animals, captures the detailed anatomy of two felines curled together in a serene pose. The print's realism and focus on animal subjects aligns with the 19th-century Romantic movement's fascination with nature and the power of the animal kingdom. Barye's artwork showcases his keen observation and mastery of the lithographic process, rendering the cats' fur and musculature with remarkable precision.
