Gato
1880 - 1946
Henri van der Stok captured this feline attitude perfectly in 1936 with 'Kat'. The bold, high-contrast black shapes and sharp white lines are classic Art Deco style, turning a sitting cat into a graphic powerhouse. The word 'Handdruk' (Dutch for hand-print) at the bottom reveals this is a unique proof, likely a woodcut, giving it a raw, textured feel. That intense, wide-eyed stare makes it look like the cat is judging your life choices, a timeless mood for any pet owner.
