Description: | This is a wonderful study of an angry cat - its tail bushes out and its eyes glower menacingly at the poor yapping dog. However, the focus of the picture travels beyond these two silly animals. It falls upon the quiet scene of the man fishing. In other words, Bewick appears to be implying that, good quality time is preferable to wasted angry moments. This is an engraving from his book, 'Quadrupeds' (1790), p.195. | Publisher: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Temporal: | Production date: 1827 | Source: | Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums | Creator: | Thomas Bewick | Identifier: | http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/discoveringb... | Go to resource |
