Default Does anyone know where The Parson's Kitten by Ronner-Knip is?

I've seen a ton of prints and reproductions out there, but does anyone know where the original is? I can't find anything...even it being sold at auction. This is a mystery to me.

Good find, but that's only a 4 by 6 inch painting and isn't identical to the original one posted. Possibly a copy painted by Ronner-Knip herself (as claimed by the seller), but not the original version.

Thank you. I looked on Leslie's web site and it looks like that painting was pulled from the auction. I'm guessing, because they felt it wasn't right or were told it wasn't right. There's so many repos of this piece and I'd love to find out where the original is or if Ronner made exact copies of her work.

Does anyone know if there's an expert for this artist?
