Cats as an artistic subject

Angus Hyland’s collection brings together feline art and illustration by artists from around the world. Short texts alongside the images offer context about the artists and their subjects, making the book both a visual collection and an introduction to the varied ways cats have appeared in art. Its subject connects domestic familiarity with qualities the description associates with cats—independence and a trace of the wild.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Cat lovers interested in seeing cats represented across art and illustration.
  • Readers who enjoy visually led art books with brief accompanying texts.
  • Those curious about artists’ approaches to a familiar animal subject.
