More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
People are passionate about their cats. We pamper them, we indulge them, and we often attribute to them characteristics that are let s face it even more remarkable than their truly remarkable actual attributes.
This delightful collection of magnificent studio photographs celebrates all that is wonderful about cats. And there s much to celebrate hence its satisfyingly large format! Divided into chapters organized by moods and expressions, these photographs depict the many faces of our favorite felines.
From the sultry gaze of a sinuous Siamese to the disdainful glare of a purebred Persian, from the steady concentration of a cat poised to pounce to the pointy-eared charm of a still awkward kitten, cats spring to life in these superb portraits. Throughout the book, captions introduce us to each cat by name and provide a sentiment purrfectly suited to the portrait above. Feline fanciers of all ages will delight in these spectacular pictures presented in an impressive large format portfolio.
About the Author
JANE BURTON trained as a painter and illustrator, but turned to wildlife photography in the nineteen fifties, almost before the advent of colour film. She was married to Kim Taylor, also now a natural history photographer. Together they have worked in Malaysia, the West Indies and Africa, on animals and wild places, for books and television. More recently Jane has specialised in portraying tamer animals, notably cats and dogs, although it is the wilder side of pets that has interested her most.

Format:Hardcover
This is a truly beautiful book. Rather larger than I had expected, you need quite a substantial coffee table to do it justice and it certainly doesn't fit on your average bookshelf! The photographs are truly amazing and will give hours of pleasure to any true cat lover. I think that possibly a warning should be given about the size of the book, it really is the biggest book I've ever owned and might be a problem if you were buying it as a gift. That said it probably needs to be this size to do justice to the absolutely gorgeous photographs it contains.

What an exquisite book! I waited a long time to receive it, but it has been worth waiting for. The photographs show cats of all colours and in all their moods - they are irresistible and truly eloquent. This is animal photography at its very best and I would highly recommend this book for the pure pleasure it brings.
