"The Cat and the Cock" is an illustration by the renowned English book illustrator Arthur Rackham, created for the 1912 edition of "Aesop's Fables" published by Heinemann. This work is part of a collection of illustrations that accompanied a selection of the classic fables attributed to Aesop, a storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece. Rackham's illustrations for this edition are celebrated for their intricate detail, whimsy, and the way they capture the moral lessons of the fables.

Arthur Rackham (1867–1939) was one of the most prominent illustrators of the early 20th century, known for his unique style that often blended fantastical elements with realism. His work on "Aesop's Fables" is considered a significant contribution to the visual interpretation of these timeless stories, which have been told and retold across cultures for centuries. The illustration "The Cat and the Cock" depicts a scene from the fable of the same name, in which a cat catches a cock but is met with a clever retort that questions the cat's intentions.

Rackham's illustration is characterized by his distinctive use of line and watercolor, which brings the characters to life with a sense of personality and emotion that enhances the narrative. The 1912 edition of "Aesop's Fables" was one of many literary classics that Rackham illustrated during his career, and his work remains influential in the field of children's literature and illustration. The legacy of his art continues to be appreciated by collectors and enthusiasts of the Golden Age of Illustration.
