Description:
Item/Description: Vintage 1985 "Seal Point Siamese Cat “ framed decorative art print lithograph from a painting by former Hallmark Cards designer & artist, Stephanie Stouffer Delightfully charming imagery depicted is that of an exquisitely elegant blue-eyed Seal Point Siamese Cat stealthily posing behind an elegant vase filled with graceful white Calla Lilies in full bloom. Both vase and kitten are resting atop a wooden shelf covered with a draping lovely white antique lace doily
So lifelike is this feline charmer that his lush tail almost appears to be “swishing” back and forth right before your eyes, and the thought crosses one’s mind that at any moment he might pounce from his perch, toppling the vase as he does so. ;~)
Oh-so-nostalgically Art Deco-esque in style and feel the colors utilized are a marvelous array of soothing pastels in subtly vivid hues of: mauve pink, milky white, jade green, emerald green, buttery yellow, creamy tan, cocoa brown, chocolate brown, ocean blue and ebony black with Flowers in Vase Resting Atop an Antique Lace Doily" Framed-Beneath-Glass Lithographic Print of a Stephanie Stouffer Painting framed art print
