Blazing stripes draped in the golds of court dress, this tiger sizes up the viewer with a majesty that neither lace nor velvet can quite tame. The crimson of the drape and the gleam of gold braid bring out the fire of its coat, while two amber eyes hold the scene with quiet authority. In the vein of the baroque masters and Vermeer's light, the portrait marries the big cat's raw power to the refinement of an old-world noble. A sumptuous face-off, poised on the edge of elegance and wildness.

This illustration is part of our series of felines reinvented as aristocrats, waiting to be explored through our Tiger Posters collection. It asserts itself above a sofa, in a study with character or a dramatic entrance, and appeals to big-cat enthusiasts and lovers of portraits that hold the room. It organises the wall around itself and quickly becomes the piece guests want to talk about.

A striking idea for a tiger lover after an image as noble as the cat that wears it.
