Original Description
Steinlen's Été - Chat sur une Balustrade (Crauzat 292) captures the languid poetry of a summer afternoon through his masterful depiction of a feline lounging on a sun-warmed balustrade. Created around the turn of the 20th century, this lithograph exemplifies Steinlen's signature Art Nouveau-inspired realism, blending delicate linework with an intuitive understanding of feline grace. As a cornerstone of his celebrated cat études, the work reflects both his commitment to animal portraiture and his background as a Parisian illustrator closely tied to Montmartre’s bohemian circles. The cat’s relaxed pose and the play of light on stone evoke a quiet intimacy, cementing Steinlen’s legacy as a bridge between commercial illustration and fine art—his works later influenced modernist printmakers like Toulouse-Lautrec. Within art historical discourse, this piece is prized for its democratic appeal, distilling Belle Époque charm into accessible graphic art.
For interior styling, this lithograph’s muted earth tones and organic lines make it ideal for spaces embracing natural warmth. Frame it in an aged gold or walnut floater frame to complement its vintage character, and position it in a reading nook or study where its contemplative mood can shine. The modest dimensions (typically under 12x10 inches) suit gallery walls or minimalist shelves paired with terracotta pots or leather-bound books for textural harmony. In offices, layer it with botanical sketches or Japanese woodblock prints to enhance its lyrical rhythm—avoid overpowering it with bold patterns. Steinlen’s cat becomes a poetic focal point when flanked by unbleached linen textiles and matte ceramic accents, whispering rather than shouting its sophistication.
