Inglorious Artists
  1. An artwork depicting two cats dressed in elaborate costumes of hats and wigs interacting with an artist in a studio. One cat adjusts the portrait of a smiling face on an easel while another, wearing a tricorne and pince-nez, holds a painter's palette. They are surrounded by easels, and a painter, dressed conservatively, looks on contemplatively.
