Rosa Bonheur, 1850 - Wild Cat - fine art print

Artwork description as provided from the museum's website (© Copyright - Nationalmuseum Stockholm - www.nationalmuseum.se)

English: Rosa Bonheur was one of the most famous painters of animals of her time. This wild cat is an excellent example of her realistic way of portraying animals. Bonheur was genuinely interested in the animals she depicted. In addition to a large number of dogs, birds and cats, she also had an otter, Mouflon sheep and lions. In 1853, at the age of 31, she gained wide recognition for her monumental painting The Horse Market. Bonheur’s choice of subjects required her to frequent places where it was impractical to wear long skirts. In 1857, the police granted her permission to wear trousers in public. Rosa Bonheur var en av sin tids mest omtalade djurmålare. Vildkatten är ett bra exempel på hennes realistiska djurporträtt. Bonheur var genuint intresserad av djuren hon avbildade. Förutom ett stort antal hundar, burfåglar och katter ägde hon själv bland annat en utter, mufflonfår och lejon. 31 år gammal fick hon 1853 sitt stora genombrott med monumentalmålningen Hästmarknaden. Bonheurs motivval krävde att hon vistades i miljöer där långa kjolar var opraktiska. 1857 ansökte hon hos polisen om tillåtelse att få att bära byxor på offentliga platser, vilket beviljades.
