Description
This vintage oleograph depicts a sentimental animal genre scene in the late 19th to early 20th-century style. The composition features four kittens with tabby and bicolor markings nestled together in a wicker basket filled with hay. A red and green striped textile is draped over the basket edge. The work is an oleograph, which is a chromolithograph printed on board and mechanically embossed with a uniform texture to mimic the appearance of a canvas oil painting. No artist signature or maker mark is visible on the front of the work. The piece is housed in a dark-stained, simple molded wooden frame.
