STEINLEN Théophile Alexandre (1859-1923) Summer, cat on a balustrade. Sagot Editeur, Paris, 1909, Color lithograph on vellum, signed in pencil on the balustrade at left, publisher's dry stamp under the signature. Framed. 57.7 x 48.9 cm. Limited edition of 250 Reference : Crauzat 292. (scratches on the bottom of the illustration, glued on cardboard) Expert : M. Stephane Averty Théophile Alexandre Steinlen, the emblematic Franco-Swiss artist of the Belle Époque, made the cat one of the most endearing and recurring symbols in his work. Present in his posters, drawings and lithographs, felines embody the tenderness of everyday life, the elegance and popular freedom of the streets of Montmartre. Steinlen's keen, benevolent observation transformed the cat into a veritable artistic and humanist icon, a reflection of Parisian life and his deep-rooted sensibility.
