Collection V — Between the shelves

The Parisian bookshop cat

The story behind this piece

A grey-and-white cat sits on an open book, a glass of red wine beside it, the Paris street visible through the open window iron railings, golden buildings, the city going about its business outside while the cat goes about its own inside.

Every good bookshop in Paris has a cat. This one has claimed the best spot in the house the desk by the window, where the light is good and the view of the street is unobstructed. The wine is within reach. The book is open. The cat is entirely unbothered by anything.

He drew this while Camille was somewhere in the shelves behind him. He could hear her turning pages. The cat watched him draw with the particular expression of someone who could do it better but cannot be bothered.

The most Parisian cat that ever lived a piece for anyone who has ever loved a bookshop, a cat, or both.
