The destinies of the cat and man were intertwined a long time ago. People worshiped cats as deities and experienced superstitious fear at the sight of glow in the dark cat's eyes, asked for help in protection from rodents and loved as closest friends.
And the artists and sculptors could not help admiring the cat's grace, which they considered perfect. In our small album there are "cat's" exhibits of the Hermitage: in ancient Egyptian bronze, European medieval painting, Chinese and Japanese graphics, Russian lubka of the XVIII-XX centuries in the form of Netsuke, toys and much more. Edition in English.
