Her Highness by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Her Highness by P. Buckley Moss is a 1982 Rare, Limited, Numbered Edition Lithograph from the P. Buckley Moss Animal Collection, P. Buckley Moss Cat Collection, P. Buckley Moss Nature Collection.

This quietly elegant piece features a solitary white cat seated with gentle poise against a softly patterned interior backdrop. The cat’s upright posture and slightly lowered gaze give it an air of calm authority—perfectly embodying the regal tone suggested by the title.

With minimal surrounding elements, the composition draws full attention to the cat, allowing its personality—independent, serene, and self-assured—to take center stage.

Style & Technique

This lithograph reflects Moss’s signature minimalist folk-art style, characterized by delicate linework and a soft, muted palette.

The vertical textures in the background create subtle movement and depth without overwhelming the subject. The cat is rendered with simple contours and light shading, emphasizing form and expression through restraint. The patterned floor adds a quiet grounding element to the composition.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Her Highness is peaceful, refined, and introspective. It captures the quiet dignity and independence often associated with cats, while also evoking a comforting sense of stillness within the home.

Moss elevates an everyday subject into a timeless portrayal of grace and personality.
