Cat with Tomato Plant - Takahashi Shotei Art Print

Fine Art Prints

Forget cheap reproductions and printable posters. Only the best will do.

Velvety matte fine art paper (warm white, archival-grade, 200gsm) with bold, vibrant, non-toxic pigment inks. High-definition print lab techniques give you sharper details, deeper saturation and true-to-life tones. While the matte surface keeps glare down and archival-grade materials mean the colors you fall for stay vivid for decades.

Framed Fine Art Prints

Your print arrives framed and ready to hang, so it goes straight from the box to your wall.

Chevron cut wooden frames make a timeless statement in three distinctive colors: black, white and natural. Each frame is made of sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine. And your artwork is protected behind ultra-clear perspex glaze that’s lighter than glass and shatter-resistant.

Float Framed Canvas Prints

Luscious artist-grade cotton canvas, hand-stretched and finely textured, gives every detail depth and precision, catching light and color with striking clarity. While a precisely measured floating frame leaves a slim gap around the canvas, so it seems to hover with a sleek, gallery-worthy effect. Finished with your choice of frame color — black, white or natural — made from sustainably sourced FSC® certified knotless pine.

Giclée Printing

August 1931. A tuxedo cat pours itself low beneath a staked tomato vine, and Takahashi Hiroaki stops the clock one second before the pounce. He dated the design himself: Showa 6, eighth month. Cat with Tomato Plant has been holding that second ever since.

Follow the spine. It climbs in a sumi-black arc, each hair cut into cherry wood by a carver working at whisker width. Straw-gold eyes lock on something past the paper's edge. One hind leg trails behind, forgotten.

Japanese cat art often favors the napper on a cushion. This animal is all appetite. Above the hunter, vermilion tomatoes swell among teal-viridian leaves. The fruit was still a newcomer on Japanese tables, a Western import ripening in Showa-era yards. Two bamboo stakes cross overhead, chopsticks abandoned mid-meal.

Shin-hanga artists loved a quiet garden. Hiroaki, known to collectors as Shotei, gave this one a pulse. Pewter mist rises behind the fur in soft bokashi gradation, and the whole Japanese woodblock print leans forward with its cat. Hang this art print and the room waits for the leap.
