Papercut with Rousseau’s Lion

Whether you are sending congratulations or condolences, a thank-you note or a short greeting—a card expresses your appreciation more than a digital message can ever do. Especially when it is one of the exquisite cards by Theres Steiner. The motif is taken from the painting Le lion, ayant faim, se jette sur l'antilope (1898/1905) by Henri Rousseau, which belongs to the Beyeler Collection. Theres Steiner has translated the hungry lion throwing itself onto the antelope as an exquisitely detailed papercut in black and green.
