Moise Kisling (1891–1953) was one of the most colourful figures of the École de Paris — a Polish-born painter who arrived in Montparnasse in 1910 and threw himself into the bohemian artistic life of pre-war Paris with the enthusiasm of someone who had found exactly the right world. His portraits, nudes, and still lifes combine a distinctive graphic clarity with a rich, sensuous colour palette that is immediately recognisable — bold outlines, simplified forms, and colours of extraordinary warmth and vibrancy. His cat paintings are particularly beloved. In counted cross stitch, Kisling's bold colour and graphic clarity translate into designs of real visual impact and warmth.
