EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait photograph, titled 'Buzzer the Cat,' was captured by the renowned American photographer Arnold Genthe around the turn of the 20th century, approximately in 1912. The image, part of the extensive Genthe Collection held at the Library of Congress, showcases Buzzer, a charming feline, reclining on a striped settee. The cat's piercing gaze, directed right at the camera, exudes an air of curiosity and intelligence. Buzzer's surroundings add to the allure of the image. The scene is set in a cozy, possibly Japanese-inspired room, with an ornate glass negative on display, suggesting an artistic and cultured household. A colorful toy lies nearby, hinting at Buzzer's playful nature. The cat's elegant pose, with one paw casually resting on the settee's arm, further emphasizes his regal demeanor. The black and white image, reminiscent of the 1910s era, showcases the timeless beauty of Genthe's photography. Buzzer's striking appearance and expressive eyes continue to captivate viewers, making this portrait a beloved piece of animal photography history. The image invites us to ponder the connection between humans and their pets, as well as the enduring bond between cats and their admirers.
