We asked our curator Bebi to pick a few linocuts.

She took one look at the sunbeam and chose to become the masterpiece instead...

A new chapter begins for Cats Museum.

We’re excited to reveal our new logo!

We’ve already fallen in love with him… and we hope you will too!
Now we need your help: what should we name him?

Félix Vallotton's stunning 1896 woodcut, La Paresse (Laziness), perfectly embodies the art of doing absolutely nothing. Doesn't this make you want to curl up with this heat?

First post here on Blue Sky. I’m a US based artist. I’ve been a linocut printmaker for the last seven years. I also enjoy monoprinting with gelli plates, mixed media collage, and painting. Inspired by my cats, my work mainly focuses on the feline form. Black cats in particular. 🐈‍⬛

Illustration from Two Too Many by Nora Unwin, 1962.
Ink illustration of a stereotypical with cape and point hat, holding up a candle to illuminate a shorthaired black cat and two shorthaired black kittens. The witch looks very kind and happy.

The author of this 16thc text, Pietro Andrea Mattioli, not only invented many new tools for distillation but also has the enviable accolade of being the first to diagnose a case of cat allergy when contact with cats made his patient react with ‘agitation, sweating and pallor’

Possibly one of the more accurate 17thc medical texts for this #caturday gives this great description: ‘There is no doore so close… where a Cat… will not find entrance’
Printed text reading: There is no doore so close, nor closet so secret, where a cat, and a wencher will not find entrance.

This is one of my favorites in my collection - smooshing babbys back around 1910. The back identifies the woman as Fay and the cats are Smut and Spot (remember ‘smut’ can mean dirt or soot, not just obscene material).
Black and white photo of a smiling middle aged white woman on the left who is looking at the camera while kneeling on the ground to gently squish and press her face on a white cat with black spots in the middle of the photo. The cat is not frightened but clearly a little annoyed and trying to escape her grasp. Next to the cat on the right is another, nearly identical cat that looks perturbed by the commotion. They seem to be outdoors, perhaps on a porch.

It’s #Caturday, and we’ve dug up some purr-plexing cat plates from our collection! From curious kitties snoozing in bowls to ambitious fishing attempts, these plates prove that cats have always been the muse for some… unique art choices. 😹
Antique ceramic plate with a whimsical black-and-white illustration of two anthropomorphic cats. One cat is seated, holding a long-stemmed pipe, while the other stands beside it, wearing a jacket and smoking a long-stemmed pipe with smoke trailing upward. A vase is visible in the background. The plate has a ridged rim and a crackled glaze, showing subtle ageing marks and spots. It is displayed against a floral-patterned background that enhances its vintage charm. Antique ceramic plate with a black-and-white illustration of a playful scene featuring a cat riding a dog. The cat sits upright with its arms raised joyfully, while the dog, wearing a saddle and decorative harness, stands beneath it. A small ball is positioned in front of the dog. The plate’s rim is ridged, and the glaze shows fine crackling, with light spots of ageing, enhancing its vintage appeal. The plate is set against a floral-patterned background. An antique ceramic plate featuring a black-and-white illustration of a curious cat reaching into a fishbowl with two fish swimming inside. Books are stacked behind the cat, adding to the scene’s charm. The plate has a ridged rim with a crackled glaze that shows subtle ageing and small brown spots. It is set against a floral-patterned background, which complements its vintage appearance. Antique ceramic plate with a black-and-white illustration of three playful kittens gathered around a large patterned bowl. One kitten lies contentedly inside the bowl, while the other two look on, one with a cloth draped over its head resembling a bonnet. Floral decorations are in the background, and a small book rests nearby. The plate has a ridged rim and shows signs of ageing with a crackled glaze. It is set against a floral-patterned background that enhances its vintage charm.
