Toile imprimée pour broderie de perles (sans perles) « Amour de mars »

“March love” — two cats sit facing each other on blossoming branches, with a large white moon shining between them. The picture is high in contrast, with a saturated colour ground.

What the picture shows

A dark cat with a lilac-pink lit side sits on a branch at the left, and a pale cat with a pink back sits at the right; both are turned towards the moon. The branches are thin and curving, covered with small white and pink blossoms that scatter across the whole canvas. The background is divided into colour zones: blue and violet on the left, crimson and red on the right, orange below, with the white disc of the moon glowing at the centre. The beadwork is partial: the cats, the branches and the blossom are beaded, while the coloured sky and the moon stay as print on the canvas.
