The fishing cat, about twice the size of a domestic feline, lives in South-East Asia and is a good swimmer, hunting its prey such as fish, crustaceans and amphibians mainly in the water. The picture, a monochrome brush drawing, is another example of how little effort Fritz sometimes had to put in to create a great work: Down on paper in minutes, practiced for an artist’s entire lifetime.
