Description: “Glorious Cats” is a beautifully illustrated book by Lesley Anne Ivory that “introduces not only her own cats but rare species. Here are cats in exotic settings from Ancient Egyptian to oriental, lying languidly on sumptuous rugs and quilt, and romping amid fields of spring flowers….accompanying the magnificent paintings are selections of prose and poetry in praise of cats by writers ranging from eighteenth-century English poets to J.R.R. Tolkien and from the pens of famous French and American cat lovers.” Leslie Anne Ivory (1934 - ) is a British artist who generally paints cats and is best known for her Ivory Cats and the more than 40 children’s books she has illustrated. Born in Bedfordshire, she attended St. Alban’s School of Art and rose to fame in the 1980’s developing her illustrative abilities with many freelance commissions. She has exhibited at numerous shows, her wood engravings were exhibited at the Summer Exhibition of the Royal Academy for a consecutive decade, and her Ivory Cats can be found on hundreds of merchandise items around the world.
