Throughout
his life, Norman Lindsay was a keen observer of cats. During his
last three decades at Springwood, in the Blue Mountains of New
South Wales, it could be said that he collected cats of all descriptions;
many roamed in the sheds, stables, garden and bushland, with a
selected few in the house. There was always one very special cat,
however, and this was his Studio Cat.
Cats appeared as simple sketches, were included in major paintings
or were finished drawings and paintings in their own right. Lindsay's
cats were portrayed as real cats or in comic situations where they
replicated the best and worst of human attributes. He wrote letters
about his cats and painted his cats with love and affection. In
all senses of the word, Norman Lindsay was a true cat lover.

| Bayard was a champion
hack during the 1940s, trained and ridden by Norman's daughter Jane.
A favourite of the family, he was affectionately nicknamed Buck as
he was a big bay gelding with an exuberant nature. Norman's insight
into personality is evident in his animal drawings. He could depict
with equal force the aristocratic arrogance of a thoroughbred and
the resigned melancholy of a workhorse. |

| The Sydney Fresh Food
and Ice Company, based in Ultimo, housed the horses who pulled carts
delivering ice, milk and perishables to central Sydney. On many occasions
Norman accompanied the delivery boy to sketch the horses in the stables
and the long suffering lad would patiently hold up a horse's head
so that Norman could perfect an eye or a nostril. Norman's insight
into personality is evident in his animal drawings. He could depict
with equal force the aristocratic arrogance of a thoroughbred and
the resigned melancholy of a workhorse. |

Every
cat owner knows that although some cats might look similar, no
two cats are exactly the same. They are all individuals with distinctly
different personalities.
Famous Australian artist Norman Lindsay was also a cat owner and a cat person.
He loved cats and for many years had a large brood of cats at his home at Springwood
in the Blue Mountains of New South Wales — Norman's daughter Jane tallied
as many as thirty-five at one time! Thus he had the opportunity to study cats
and their personalities over a long period of time. In his spare time Norman
delighted in drawing his cats in various positions — posing, dozing, playing
with feathers, defending themselves against fowls, dogs and children or simply
curled into soft, cuddly balls of fur.
Norman's studies of cats during his long life convinced him that cats embody
many human qualities. He expanded on this theme, endowing his cats with human
characteristics, and among his many whimsical drawings are the nine watercolours
reproduced in this folio. The original watercolours are all in the collection
of the Mitchell Library, State Library of New South Wales.
The nine unique watercolours
produced in this folio cover a range of cat personalities and we are sure many
people will recognise these traits in their own loved cats. |
