Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

Still Life With Cat by Alexandre Francois Desportes (French, 1661-1743).  Just as with the frequent cat and dog paw marks on Roman tiles which were stepped upon by wandering pets 2,000 years ago, I love paintings from 2-500 years ago which capture moments which we still experience.  Such as your cat trying to make off with the meal.
