Vintage (1940s) Original Art : Feline Anatomy // Cat Studies - Graphite On Paper by Anonymous Artist.
Framed sheet of sketches studying cats, a kitten's sleeping face, and detailed studies of paws and paw pads. Traditional late - 19th to early-20th-century animal illustrators. Vintage framing, foxing - the brown age spots on the paper, and specific study layout. Large, wavy stains across the bottom and right side indicate historical water exposure. Likely 1920s - 1950s. Brittle, oxidized brown craft backing paper and the old white masking tape are classic materials used by mid-century and early 20th-century framing shops.
Housed in a wooden vintage frame. Ready To Hang. Backing shows distress + discoloration. Paper Torn. Foxing Present. Wire may need to be restrung depending on what perspective you want to show. Animal Sketchbook. Over decades, acid in this paper turns it dark tan and crumbly. Thin, un-coated metal hanging wire secured with small metal eyes is typical of older, pre-1960s framing methods. Unsigned.
Measurements : 18.75" x 20.25" x .75"
