  • Cats

    Cats

    Daniel Merlin (French, Unfortunately, I couldn't find definitive information on an artist named Daniel Merlin. This could be due to a few reasons—perhaps the name is misspelled, refers to a very obscure figure, or is a pseudonym used by another artist.)

    A lively portrayal of cats, blending realism and abstraction to capture their playful mystery and quiet elegance.

  • Estelle (1886)

    Estelle (1886)

    James Jebusa Shannon (American, 1862–1923)

    A luminous portrait balancing technical precision with emotional depth, where light and expression tell more than words could.
