The Cat’s Concert
What can be more refreshing than a good cat’s concert at 6 o’clock in the morning?
Great dutch painter Frans Snyders knew this and depicted an outstanding cultural event in his masterpiece:
Frans Snyders, The Cat’s Concert, about 1630-1640
To appreciate how entertaining the situation appeared to be after Our restoration works, you should have a look at the commonly known version of the masterpiece at the Hermitage Museum collection:
Frans Snyders, Bird’s Concert
The Hermitage Museum was so impressed by Our efforts in the restoration of the masterpiece, that they featured the renewed painting on their wall. You don’t believe in it? Please see the photo:

“Elck vogeltge singt soo’t gebeckt is” – “Every bird sings the way he knows how” , that means “everyone speaks the way he knows how” – a Dutch proverb says
And We know how to speak!
Thus speaks Zarathustra the Cat
