A striking example of modern Japanese woodblock printing by the contemporary artist Tadashige Nishida, widely celebrated for his highly sought-after series of feline prints. Nishida possesses a unique ability to capture the distinct moods and personalities of his subjects. In this composition, two black cats with piercing golden eyes sit gracefully on a pale woodgrain surface against a vivid, geometric blue background. Issued in a strictly limited edition of 150, this impression is numbered 47. Nishida's works are renowned for their high technical execution and remain a favorite among both collectors of contemporary Japanese graphics and cat enthusiasts alike.
