Théophile Steinlen Cross Stitch Kits & Patterns ⁽⁴⁾

Théophile Steinlen (1859–1923) was the artist who made cats cool — long before the internet got there. The Swiss-French illustrator and poster artist spent his career in Montmartre documenting the street life, workers, performers, and alley cats of fin-de-siècle Paris with a sharp social conscience and an extraordinary graphic talent. His posters for Aristide Bruant's cabaret and his famous Chat Noir designs became iconic images of the era, while his tender studies of cats — observed with the loving accuracy of a man who genuinely adored them — remain among the most charming and technically accomplished animal illustrations in the history of graphic art. In counted cross stitch, Steinlen's bold graphic lines and rich poster colours translate into designs of real visual impact and charm.
