Robert Deyber: “It’s a Cat’s Life”
This modern stone crafted lithograph depicts a rather simple story of the ideal life of a cat. A tuna hanging representing food, a ball of string showing the cats playfulness, and mice for which the cat can toy with. The cat is clearly the point of symmetry, and the rest of the piece follows suit, with a small mouse on either side and the tuna and ball on opposite sides evening out the picture. What is most impressive is the artist’s dedication to the fading style of stone lithographs, and the impressive cleaness of the that the piece has. The piece comes from the modern era and is very easy to tell with its use of color, Modern subject, and symmetrical spacing.
