is "Angelo Rizzuto" the name of the cat? I really hope it is.

@bubbalumpkis That was the first thing I thought too!!!!

The best thing about cats in art is that they are always behaving EXACTLY the same way no matter what century it is because all our advances mean nothing to them.

a whole bunch of rizzuto’s photos have been digitized by the LOC, and they’re slowly working through more of them:

@nikkuneko Yes! I did a lot of work on his Wikipedia page, fascinating guy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

@jessamyn thank you so much for your work on that page!

@nikkuneko His life was so interesting but really poorly documented. Michael Lesy who did the book about him with a longass intro (and who taught at Hampshire when I was there) did the bulk of the work documenting his life and I thank him for it.
