The image captures the essence of nature blending seamlessly with the grandeur of political power. Standing at a doorway adorned with intricate architectural details, Humphrey, the beloved feline resident of 10 Downing Street during the 1990s, exudes an air of regality.

As Prime Ministers come and go within those hallowed walls, Humphrey remains a constant presence - an emblematic figure who witnessed history unfold silently from his perch.

This evocative piece transports us back to an era when cats roamed freely through corridors steeped in tradition. It invites us to reflect on how even within such esteemed institutions, simple moments can bring joy and warmth. Macdonald skillfully immortalizes not just a cat but also an enduring symbol of unity between man-made structures and nature’s untamed allure – reminding us all that sometimes it takes only one furry
