Cats in Art


Throughout history, cats have held a special place in art. In medieval manuscripts and paintings, they often appeared as decorative details. However, many cats, especially black ones, were seen as symbols of evil or mysterious witchcraft. During the witch trials in Europe and Colonial America, cats were often executed along with suspected witches.


The oldest known artistic depiction of a cat, "The Feline Carving," is a geoglyph in the Nazca Desert, often called the Nazca Lines. This cat etching, created around 200 B.C.E., was discovered among the group of drawings in Peru. According to Peru's Ministry of Culture, this ancient artwork dates back 2,000 years.

Many artists have drawn inspiration from cats, including them in their paintings over the years. For instance, "A White Cat Playing with a Rope," a work dating from 1863 by Japanese artist Hiroshige II, showcases the playful nature of felines. Or "Two Kittens Watching A Fly" by artist Henriëtte Ronner-Knip painted in 1891. In ancient Egypt, cats were revered because they killed snakes, which were seen as enemies of the sun god Ra. The goddess Bastet, daughter of Ra, represented protection, good health, and fertility, and was often depicted as a cat.
