This ceramic sculpture depicts a cat sitting in an expressive posture, with a slender body and angular forms. Its rough texture, marked by cracks and shades of terracotta color, gives it an organic yet sculptural appearance. The metal whiskers add an interesting contrast to the ceramic material.
Atelier Palègre, active in the second half of the twentieth century, is renowned for its animal ceramics, particularly its depictions of cats. Its works are distinguished by an expressive style and a craftsmanlike approach that combines abstraction and naturalism.
