This is a casting from one of Beniamino Bufano's molds. It is a 'maquette' or study of what
would become a much larger work. Bufano did many variations on the cat but this charming
little version of one of his monumental sized pieces fits nicely with everyday life. With co-
operation from the Bufano estate DeCarlo Studio is creating a limited run of cold cast bronze
"cat" on a cold cast marble base. (2 3/4" high x 2 3/8" wide x 4 3/4" long)
The cold cast bronze miniatures are also available here on this site, at the Art People Gallery
and at the Museo Italo Americano in San Francisco's Fort Mason Complex.
