Rascal - A Playful Antique Cat Print by Henriette Ronner, 1894

About the Item

Title: Rascal from 'Cats and Kittens' by Henriette Ronner, 1894 Description: This charming artwork, titled 'Rascal,' is from the collection 'Cats and Kittens' by Henriette Ronner, published by Cassell and Company, Limited, in 1894. The print captures the lively essence of a young kitten with its expressive eyes and soft fur texture, embodying Henriette Ronner's renowned ability to portray the grace and character of feline subjects. Ronner's works are highly appreciated for their naturalistic yet affectionate depictions of cats. The technique used for this piece is photogravure, a printmaking process that captures fine details and subtleties of light and shadow, making this particular work rich in tonal range. About the maker: Henriette Ronner-Knip (1821-1909) was a celebrated Dutch-Belgian painter, known particularly for her delightful and realistic portrayals of cats. Throughout her career, she became famous for her meticulous and loving renderings of domestic animals, especially cats. She came from an artistic family and began exhibiting her work from a young age. Moving to Brussels, her career flourished, and she eventually specialized in painting cats, which became her signature subject. Ronner's art has often been associated with elegance and a playful insight into the intimate lives of her feline companions. Her works were widely admired, and her reputation earned her prestigious commissions, including paintings for the Belgian royal family. The print in this publication is executed in photogravure, which was a favored technique of the period for reproducing detailed illustrations and maintaining the quality and nuance of the original artwork.
