These are all great, but my favorite is the first one from Bacchiacca. This proves cats have been popular as art models for centuries :)
ReplyDeleteThese are really nice. I always like the painting type pictures with cats.
ReplyDeleteThat last cat is a little creepy, but I'm certain painting cats must be a hard job !
ReplyDeleteLove that first one!
ReplyDeleteI'm always amazed by how many painting there are with cats in them!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, how lovely is that last painting. Not too sure about the middle one though as to me it almost looks like the cat was added as an after thought and was never in the original sittings.
