"Alte Frau Und Katze" (Old Woman and Cat) is a notable painting by the Swiss symbolist painter Ferdinand Hodler, created in 1885. Hodler, who is recognized as one of the most significant Swiss artists of the 19th and early 20th centuries, often explored themes of existentialism, mortality, and the human condition in his work. This particular painting is a poignant example of his interest in depicting the intimate and often melancholic aspects of life.

The composition of "Alte Frau Und Katze" is both simple and profound, featuring an elderly woman seated with a cat resting on her lap. The woman’s expression is contemplative, suggesting a deep sense of introspection or resignation. The cat, often a symbol of domesticity and companionship, adds a layer of comfort and familiarity to the scene. Hodler's use of muted colors and soft, yet deliberate brushstrokes enhances the painting's somber and reflective mood.

Hodler's approach to this work is emblematic of his broader artistic philosophy, which sought to convey universal truths through the depiction of everyday subjects. His style, characterized by a blend of realism and symbolism, allows viewers to engage with the painting on multiple levels, from the literal to the metaphorical. The painting's quiet, introspective quality invites viewers to reflect on themes of aging, solitude, and the passage of time.

"Alte Frau Und Katze" is housed in the Kunstmuseum Bern, which holds a significant collection of Hodler's works. The painting remains an important piece within Hodler's oeuvre, exemplifying his skill in capturing the nuanced emotional states of his subjects and his ability to imbue ordinary scenes with profound meaning. Through this work, Hodler continues to resonate with contemporary audiences, offering a timeless meditation on the human experience.
