Journals & Notebooks*The Met Store The Favorite Cat Journal

Our handsome journal features Nathaniel Currier’s hand-colored lithograph, The Favorite Cat. A favorite, indeed, this charming feline has become an icon of The Met collection. Currier & Ives (American, 1857–1907), was a celebrated New York printmaking firm renowned for their wildly popular portrayals of historical events, political satires, and pleasant scenes from everyday life.
