Woman with a Cat (Bonnard)

Woman with a Cat or The Demanding Cat is a 1912 oil on canvas painting by French Post-Impressionist painter Pierre Bonnard. The work depicts Marthe Bonnard and a cat climbing on to a table arranged for a meal. The influence of Japanese prints is apparent, as it often is in works by Bonnard and the other artists of the Nabis. The painting was donated by Baronnes Eva Gebhard-Gourgaud to the Musée National d'Art Moderne in 1965, and assigned to the Musée d'Orsay in 1977.
