A rare offering, Maud Lewis' “The White Cat” is a unique rendering of a favourite theme. The cool blue eyes of the singular cat peer out to the viewer through a fluffy white coat amongst the spring landscape. Lewis' quintessential tulips and cherry blossoms frame the charming cat, evoking an innocent air to the composition. This exceptional example of the artist's work showcases the joy and whimsy Lewis was able to convey from the simple imagery and bright cheerful colours of the artwork.
