What do we see in this poster?

The Cats poster is an example of art from the mid to late 1800s in North America. The exact date of creation is unknown. This work of art can now be found in the Boston Public Library. This mural comes from the American artist Virginia Janus and shows a colorful, somewhat crazy-looking collection of black and white kittens, which are finely separated according to their fur color. The black cats have large, colorful collars around their necks, which seem almost absurd because they are larger than the animals themselves. Cats' opinions on fashion tastes also differ. She ranges from completely calm to angry. The lower part of the mural is more peaceful. The white cats are shown here, which also wear colorful but significantly smaller bows around their necks. They are more peaceful and lie relaxed on the floor.

Where can this poster hang?

A poster of the artwork “Cats” carries an extremely playful and unique energy. It's not just a 150-year-old mural of cats. We see it much more in our online art gallery as a pioneer of today's Instagram and Co. photos. After all, there are countless cat photographs of all kinds today, but Virginia Janus was a whole century ahead of the mainstream. A poster of the work of art is particularly suitable in a children's room, living room and for every cat lover.
