Hans Silvester captures the essence of the sunshine-drenched Mediterranean with his perennially popular photographs of cats and kittens.
Customer Review: Purrfectly Great Year Ahead
This lovely wall calendar is certain to please any and all cat people on your gift list. Why? Because it's not one of those overly-cute kitty compilations that non-cat people always, maddeningly, assume we like. Instead, it's twelve months of beautiful photographs of cats by Hans Silvester taken from various of his well known and highly regarded Cats in the Sun series of books. These portraits capture the dignified essence of the feline personality while preserving all its delightful quirks and permutations. Cats in repose, alone or with companions, are captured in the sun-dappled, faded-paint architecture of Greek and other eastern Mediterranean fishing villages. They are soothing, calming, and centering to look at, and will complement a variety of decors. Each month features a full-color 9 x11 photo matted on an 11x13 page. The colors are vivid; the tones harmonious. Moon phases, as well as major Canadian, American, Christian, and Jewish holidays are noted.
Customer Review: Purrrrfect
Choosing my calendars is a big deal for me each year, because I decorate my otherwise dreary office cube (think Dilbert) with as many as will fit (usually three). The one facing me as I sit at my desk must always be a cat calendar, I have decreed. And for the first time, I have chosen the always wonderful but this year spectacular 2005 Cats in the Sun calendar. Every single cat is a melting beauty (we all know how cats melt in the sun)...the pictures are superb, and it almost seems like you can hear each cat purr. I can't wait to put mine up on the wall in an otherwise heartless January. A wonderful choice for any cat lover!
