Art of the Feline – Cat Art
At the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago, a bold painting by Austrian artist Carl Kahler made a splash among critics. Entitled My Wife’s Lovers, the work drew tremendous attention for its lavish depictions of a wealthy socialite’s paramours.
It wasn’t infidelity, though: The “lovers” were her cats. Now, My Life’s Loversβperhaps the greatest cat tribute ever created by human handsβjust sold at Sotheby’s auction for a whopping $826,000.

Cats are the best! I think they are agents from above!
I believe they are also. π
These are beautiful cats, all of them Sandra – you really enhanced their photos being so close-up.
Thank you Linda, they have such beautiful eyes. π

Okay, “My Wifeβs Lovers” might’ve just sold for almost a million dollars, but honestly, I like your photo art better. Your cats are gorgeous, Sandra.
Thank you very much Kellye, yes I can’t imagine who is spending that much on a painting of cats. I do love cats but, that is one expensive print. π
Love your cats!
Thank you very much Janet.
