Quiet Street Antiques of Bath has dated this piece to the Regency era.
Typical of this sculptor, he has caught the cat perfectly as it calmly and patiently waits ~ perhaps for a mouse to appear from a hole in the skirting boards? Signed within the bronze, and raised on its original variegated marble plinth. 9ins (23cms) high overall.
Equally famous for his work on a small scale, and also large statues he is accredited with being the founder of the internationally famous "Animalier" movement.
