Cat's Life by Jane Burton
People are passionate about their cats. We pamper them, we indulge them, and we often attribute to them characteristics that are - let's face it - even more remarkable than their already remarkable actual attributes. This delightful collection of magnificent studio photographs celebrates all that is wonderful about cats, and there's much to celebrate - hence its satisfyingly large format! Divided into chapters organized by moods and expressions, these photographs depict the many faces of our favourite felines. From the sultry gaze of a sinuous Siamese to the disdainful glare of a purebred Persian, from the steady concentration of a cat poised to pounce to the pointy-eared charm of a still awkward kitten, cats spring to life in these superb portraits. Throughout the book, captions introduce us to each cat by name and provide a sentiment uncannily well-matched to the portrait above.
JANE BURTON trained as a painter and illustrator, but turned to wildlife photography in the nineteen fifties, almost before the advent of colour film. She was married to Kim Taylor, also now a natural history photographer. Together they have worked in Malaysia, the West Indies and Africa, on animals and wild places, for books and television. More recently Jane has specialised in portraying tamer animals, notably cats and dogs, although it is the wilder side of pets that has interested her most.
