Featured works will include a leaded bronze sculpture of a cat made in ancient Egypt (mid-7th to late 1st century BCE), the hanging scroll depicting a tiger that Katayama Yōkoku painted in Edo period Japan (c. 1780–1801), and Self-Portrait with Cat, which German artist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner painted in 1920.
