This volume examines the recurring motifs of cats and adolescent girls in the work of the Polish-French painter Balthus. Through a selection of paintings and drawings, Sabine Rewald explores the artist's psychological depth and his deliberate subversion of traditional figurative conventions. The text provides a scholarly analysis of his enigmatic compositions, situating his practice within the broader context of twentieth-century European modernism.
