EDITORS COMMENTS
The vibrant and whimsical print titled "I'm a Cat, from White Bottoms" transports us back to the glamorous world of 1920s Paris. Created by Sem (Georges Goursat), this colour block print captures the essence of high society during the Jazz Age. In this image, we see a dapper gentleman immersed in the joyous atmosphere of a Parisian soirée. The man exudes an air of sophistication and elegance as he revels in the excesses of his time. The artist's caricature style adds a playful touch to the scene, emphasizing both the opulence and lightheartedness that defined this era. The presence of a black cat perched on top of a grand piano adds an intriguing element to the composition. Symbolizing mystery and superstition, it hints at hidden depths beneath the surface frivolity. Perhaps it serves as a reminder that even amidst all the extravagance, there is always more than meets the eye. This print not only showcases Sem's artistic talent but also provides us with valuable insight into early 20th-century culture. It encapsulates both the carefree spirit and cultural significance of jazz music and dance forms like Charleston that were popular during this period. As we admire this piece from our private collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us through time, allowing us to experience moments long gone but forever captured within its brushstrokes or in this case - colour blocks.
