Thanks to Ann from Zoolatry for the graphic

This year, we decided to celebrate World Cat Day with Rosina.

Rosina Wachtmeister was born on January 7th, 1939 in Vienna. At the age of 14, she leaves for Brazil with her parents. She decides to become a sculptor, attends class in the art school of Porto Alegre between 1955 and 1961, and obtains her sculptor’s diploma. She establishes then a small troop of puppeteers which travels Brazil during 3 years.
Later, she marries the painter Paolo Rissone, and since 1974, she settles down in Italy, in Capena, a small village in the North of Rome.

Rosina creates adorable cats with a characteristic head in moon shape. Claire already has jewels, objects, and reproductions with these cats. She likes this artist very much.


On Tuesday, Grandpa enriched the collection : he brought back these two linen and these two mugs from his last trip.



At our home, cats are celebrated all year long and in every way !
