my wifes lovers cat painting 2651799

Carl Kahler's 1891 painting *My Wife's Lovers*, a monumental portrait of 42 cats commissioned by San Francisco millionaire Kate Birdsall Johnson, has resurfaced in popularity thanks to social media and a record-breaking sale at Sotheby's in 2016, where it fetched $826,000—more than double its high estimate. The article details Kahler's background as a horse-racing painter from Austria, his three-year stay at Johnson's Buena Vista Castle sketching her feline menagerie, and the painting's debut at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair. Johnson, an eccentric art collector and philanthropist, owned hundreds of cats and named the work after her late husband's nickname for them.

Ferris State alum and rising artist Jackson Wrede continues emergence with inaugural solo exhibition

Ferris State University Kendall College of Art and Design alum Jackson Wrede held his first solo exhibition, "Menagerie," at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center earlier this year. The show featured 25 recent paintings spanning realist portraits, landscapes, still lifes, and symbolist works inspired by Japanese art and pop culture. Wrede, who earned his MFA in 2021, has quickly gained recognition, winning the Quinquagenary Grand Prize at the Swope Art Museum’s 79th Wabash Valley Exhibition and the Grand Prize at the 44th Michigan Fine Arts Competition, which led to this solo opportunity. He also received a Certificate of Excellence in the Portrait Society of America’s International Portrait Competition and first place in the PSA’s 2024 Members Only competition.
