Eighty cats. Four realms. A thousand years of Chinese art.

Whiskers Through Four Realms gathers eighty original hand-painted gongbi cats, each one wandering through a different corner of the Chinese artistic tradition - the instruments of the scholar's studio, the flowers of the four seasons, the beasts of myth and legend, and the glazes of a thousand years of porcelain. Painted on silk in fine line work and mineral pigments, every plate carries a seal carved with that cat's own name. And every cat, however grand its surroundings, stays unmistakably a cat: curious, unbothered, and entirely at home among things far older than itself.
